Description
-----------

**CharacterBody3D** is a specialized class for physics bodies that are meant to be user-controlled. They are not affected by physics at all, but they affect other physics bodies in their path. They are mainly used to provide high-level API to move objects with wall and slope detection (:ref:`move_and_slide<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>` method) in addition to the general collision detection provided by :ref:`PhysicsBody3D.move_and_collide<class_PhysicsBody3D_method_move_and_collide>`. This makes it useful for highly configurable physics bodies that must move in specific ways and collide with the world, as is often the case with user-controlled characters.

For game objects that don't require complex movement or collision detection, such as moving platforms, :ref:`AnimatableBody3D<class_AnimatableBody3D>` is simpler to configure.

Enumerations
------------

.. _enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration

enum **MotionMode**: :ref:`🔗<enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode>`

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_constant_MOTION_MODE_GROUNDED:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration-constant

:ref:`MotionMode<enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode>` **MOTION_MODE_GROUNDED** = ``0``

Apply when notions of walls, ceiling and floor are relevant. In this mode the body motion will react to slopes (acceleration/slowdown). This mode is suitable for grounded games like platformers.

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_constant_MOTION_MODE_FLOATING:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration-constant

:ref:`MotionMode<enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode>` **MOTION_MODE_FLOATING** = ``1``

Apply when there is no notion of floor or ceiling. All collisions will be reported as ``on_wall``. In this mode, when you slide, the speed will always be constant. This mode is suitable for games without ground like space games.

.. _enum_CharacterBody3D_PlatformOnLeave:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration

enum **PlatformOnLeave**: :ref:`🔗<enum_CharacterBody3D_PlatformOnLeave>`

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration-constant

:ref:`PlatformOnLeave<enum_CharacterBody3D_PlatformOnLeave>` **PLATFORM_ON_LEAVE_ADD_VELOCITY** = ``0``

Add the last platform velocity to the :ref:`velocity<class_CharacterBody3D_property_velocity>` when you leave a moving platform.

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_constant_PLATFORM_ON_LEAVE_ADD_UPWARD_VELOCITY:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration-constant

:ref:`PlatformOnLeave<enum_CharacterBody3D_PlatformOnLeave>` **PLATFORM_ON_LEAVE_ADD_UPWARD_VELOCITY** = ``1``

Add the last platform velocity to the :ref:`velocity<class_CharacterBody3D_property_velocity>` when you leave a moving platform, but any downward motion is ignored. It's useful to keep full jump height even when the platform is moving down.

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_constant_PLATFORM_ON_LEAVE_DO_NOTHING:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration-constant

:ref:`PlatformOnLeave<enum_CharacterBody3D_PlatformOnLeave>` **PLATFORM_ON_LEAVE_DO_NOTHING** = ``2``

Do nothing when leaving a platform.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_block_on_wall:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **floor_block_on_wall** = ``true`` :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_block_on_wall>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_floor_block_on_wall_enabled**\ (\ value\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>`\ )
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_floor_block_on_wall_enabled**\ (\ )

If ``true``, the body will be able to move on the floor only. This option avoids to be able to walk on walls, it will however allow to slide down along them.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_constant_speed:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **floor_constant_speed** = ``false`` :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_constant_speed>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_floor_constant_speed_enabled**\ (\ value\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>`\ )
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_floor_constant_speed_enabled**\ (\ )

If ``false`` (by default), the body will move faster on downward slopes and slower on upward slopes.

If ``true``, the body will always move at the same speed on the ground no matter the slope. Note that you need to use :ref:`floor_snap_length<class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_snap_length>` to stick along a downward slope at constant speed.

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_max_angle:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **floor_max_angle** = ``0.785398`` :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_max_angle>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_floor_max_angle**\ (\ value\: :ref:`float<class_float>`\ )
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_floor_max_angle**\ (\ )

Maximum angle (in radians) where a slope is still considered a floor (or a ceiling), rather than a wall, when calling :ref:`move_and_slide<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>`. The default value equals 45 degrees.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_snap_length:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **floor_snap_length** = ``0.1`` :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_snap_length>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_floor_snap_length**\ (\ value\: :ref:`float<class_float>`\ )
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_floor_snap_length**\ (\ )

Sets a snapping distance. When set to a value different from ``0.0``, the body is kept attached to slopes when calling :ref:`move_and_slide<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>`. The snapping vector is determined by the given distance along the opposite direction of the :ref:`up_direction<class_CharacterBody3D_property_up_direction>`.

As long as the snapping vector is in contact with the ground and the body moves against :ref:`up_direction<class_CharacterBody3D_property_up_direction>`, the body will remain attached to the surface. Snapping is not applied if the body moves along :ref:`up_direction<class_CharacterBody3D_property_up_direction>`, meaning it contains vertical rising velocity, so it will be able to detach from the ground when jumping or when the body is pushed up by something. If you want to apply a snap without taking into account the velocity, use :ref:`apply_floor_snap<class_CharacterBody3D_method_apply_floor_snap>`.

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_stop_on_slope:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **floor_stop_on_slope** = ``true`` :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_property_floor_stop_on_slope>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_floor_stop_on_slope_enabled**\ (\ value\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>`\ )
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_floor_stop_on_slope_enabled**\ (\ )

If ``true``, the body will not slide on slopes when calling :ref:`move_and_slide<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>` when the body is standing still.

If ``false``, the body will slide on floor's slopes when :ref:`velocity<class_CharacterBody3D_property_velocity>` applies a downward force.

.. _class_CharacterBody3D_property_max_slides:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`int<class_int>` **max_slides** = ``6`` :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_property_max_slides>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_max_slides**\ (\ value\: :ref:`int<class_int>`\ )
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_max_slides**\ (\ )

Maximum number of times the body can change direction before it stops when calling :ref:`move_and_slide<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

:ref:`MotionMode<enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode>` **motion_mode** = ``0`` :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_property_motion_mode>`

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_motion_mode**\ (\ value\: :ref:`MotionMode<enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode>`\ )
- :ref:`MotionMode<enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode>` **get_motion_mode**\ (\ )

Sets the motion mode which defines the behavior of :ref:`move_and_slide<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>`. See :ref:`MotionMode<enum_CharacterBody3D_MotionMode>` constants for available modes.

- |void| **set_platform_floor_layers**\ (\ value\: :ref:`int<class_int>`\ )
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_platform_floor_layers**\ (\ )

Collision layers that will be included for detecting floor bodies that will act as moving platforms to be followed by the **CharacterBody3D**. By default, all floor bodies are detected and propagate their velocity.

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_safe_margin**\ (\ value\: :ref:`float<class_float>`\ )
- :ref:`float<class_float>` **get_safe_margin**\ (\ )

Extra margin used for collision recovery when calling :ref:`move_and_slide<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>`.

If the body is at least this close to another body, it will consider them to be colliding and will be pushed away before performing the actual motion.

A higher value means it's more flexible for detecting collision, which helps with consistently detecting walls and floors.

A lower value forces the collision algorithm to use more exact detection, so it can be used in cases that specifically require precision, e.g at very low scale to avoid visible jittering, or for stability with a stack of character bodies.

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **move_and_slide**\ (\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_CharacterBody3D_method_move_and_slide>`

Moves the body based on :ref:`velocity<class_CharacterBody3D_property_velocity>`. If the body collides with another, it will slide along the other body rather than stop immediately. If the other body is a **CharacterBody3D** or :ref:`RigidBody3D<class_RigidBody3D>`, it will also be affected by the motion of the other body. You can use this to make moving and rotating platforms, or to make nodes push other nodes.

Modifies :ref:`velocity<class_CharacterBody3D_property_velocity>` if a slide collision occurred. To get the latest collision call :ref:`get_last_slide_collision<class_CharacterBody3D_method_get_last_slide_collision>`, for more detailed information about collisions that occurred, use :ref:`get_slide_collision<class_CharacterBody3D_method_get_slide_collision>`.

When the body touches a moving platform, the platform's velocity is automatically added to the body motion. If a collision occurs due to the platform's motion, it will always be first in the slide collisions.

Returns ``true`` if the body collided, otherwise, returns ``false``.
