    Hi to all,

    I am moving from adobe flash into unity. Unity looks user-friendly and have more built-in-functions for complex tasks.

    it's bit tough for me to adapt into Unity.

    can anyone tell me a simple way to build realistic top down 2d car movement? if you have simple script kindly share...

    i made it using simple transform function but not impressed.

    Please kindly help me with this...

    Thanks..

    Welcome to Unity, you will love it! I also came from a Flash background.

    If I can suggest a tutorial to get you started on using Unity in a 2D context, it has to be this one:
    http://pixelnest.io/tutorials/2d-game-unity/

    The author does a really good job of explaining every little details!
    (you know how so many tutorials are missing some little detail that makes it hard to understand for newbies.. well this one is not one of them!)

    For for moving car, I would use a rigidbody. If I'm mistaken, the tutorial link that I give you uses rigidbody to move the spaceship, so it would be a good start for you!

    Good luck!
