CharacterController or rigidbody ?

Hi!

I was wondering what was the best for me.
I have a procedurally generated level that is infinite. So I’m using RAIN without any meshcollider.
For now I have a charactercontroller on every single AI in my scene.

But what is the main difference between Character Controller and collider + rigidbody ?

What should I use ?

Thx !

Using a rigidbody/collider combination is good in a lot of scenarios, but doesn’t work as well on uneven terrain as a CharacterController. The CharacterController is more expensive in terms of CPU, but does handle ramps, small step ups, etc.

Ok so I guess I’ll be managing a good “spawn area” aroudn the player so that there is not so many AI running at the same time. This will allow me to keep the CharacterController.

Thank you
