In programming, code may not cause errors, but may cause Semantic Errors which are errors that are harder to find. These don't show up in the Console. For example, maybe in our code somewhere we did a + 1 instead of b + 1. The code doesn't cause an error, but you get unexpected output because you are writing code that doesn't do what you told it to do.

Please provide your code, because it might have some Semantic Errors.

using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour {

private Animator playerAnimator;
private float moveHorizontal;
private float moveVertical;
private Vector3 movement;
private float turningSpeed = 20f;
private Rigidbody playerRigidbody;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {

    // Gather components from the Player GameObject
    playerAnimator = GetComponent<Animator> ();
    playerRigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody> (); 

}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
    // Gather input from the keyboard
    moveHorizontal = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Horizontal");
    moveVertical = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Vertical");

    movement = new Vector3 (moveHorizontal, 0.0f, moveVertical);

}

void Fixedupdate () {

    // If the player's movement vector doesnt equal 0 ...
    if (movement != Vector3.zero) {
        //...Then create a target rotation based on movement Vector
        Quaternion targetRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation (movement, Vector3.up); 

        //...and create another rotation that moves from the current rotation to the target rotaion
        Quaternion newRotation = Quaternion.Lerp (playerRigidbody.rotation, targetRotation,turningSpeed * Time.deltaTime);

        //...and change the players rotation to the new incremental rotation
        playerRigidbody.MoveRotation (newRotation);

        //... then play the jump animation
        playerAnimator.SetFloat ("Speed", 3f);
    } else {
        //...Otherwise dont play movement animation
        playerAnimator.SetFloat ("Speed", 0f);
    }
