Why do objects stutter while I move and the camera is rotating?

I have began developing an fps script and followed a tutorial to help with the script. Everything works great now but the only issue is any objects in the view seem to stutter whenever the player is moving and rotating at the same time.
The script for the player's movement and camera rotation is below.
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Thank you.

Quaternion camTargetRotation = Quaternion.Euler(-camRotationY, 0, 0);

transform.rotation = Quaternion.Lerp(transform.rotation, bodyTargetRotation, Time.deltaTime * rotationSmoothSpeed);
cam.localRotation = Quaternion.Lerp(cam.localRotation, camTargetRotation, Time.deltaTime * rotationSmoothSpeed);

rb.velocity = directionIntentY * Input.GetAxis("Vertical") * speed + directionIntentX * Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * speed + Vector3.up * rb.velocity.y;
rb.velocity = Vector3.ClampMagnitude(rb.velocity, maxSpeed);
if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift))
{
speed = runSpeed;
}
if (!Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift))
{
speed = walkSpeed;
}
}
void ExtraGravity()
{
rb.AddForce(Vector3.down * extraGravity);
}
void GroundCheck()
{

}

This probably happens because the frame needs to update the camera rotation and the player position at the same time. i would suggest doing the rotation of the camera in fixed update. because this will run at the end of each frame.
like this:
void FixedUpdate()
{
LookRotation();
}
another thing i would suggest is to move the player while the groundcheck is being ran, because if you do it seperately i can see a bug coming up when the player moves faster then the code can run or something. so a tip would be or to run it inside the movement method, or call the method while you are calling the movement method.
this:
void Movement()
{
directionIntentX = cam.right;
directionIntentX.y = 0;
directionIntentX.Normalize();
directionIntentY = cam.forward;
directionIntentY.y = 0;
directionIntentY.Normalize();
rb.velocity = directionIntentY * Input.GetAxis("Vertical") * speed + directionIntentX * Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * speed + Vector3.up * rb.velocity.y;
rb.velocity = Vector3.ClampMagnitude(rb.velocity, maxSpeed);
if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift))
{
speed = runSpeed;
}
if (!Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftShift))
{
speed = walkSpeed;
}
GroundCheck();
}
or litteraly copy and paste the code within your movement method.

Unity Character Controller animation problem

I just started my adventure with unity and I got stuck.
I need to make my character turn on animation walk when I press "W" and when there is no any key pressed stop and do Idle animation for being not moved (Sorry for my english I'm not a native speaker) and then when I press space char should jump and use jump anim my char actually move and jump but repeat only one animation even when I don't press any key.
Further, I want to make Climbing, Ledge Climb, character falling from the edge, etc smth like in Assassin's Creed. I want to animation play on keypress.I just start to figure it out using transition but still luck of results
I'm not sure what should I change, need a help.

Rotation smooth in editor but isn't in device

I have a 3D object that I want to rotate with mouse/finger swipe, so I made the script below.
The object's rotation looks smooth on editor, but when playing the game on real device (android), the rotation didn't follow the finger movement immediately, it takes some milliseconds to follow finger, it isn't smooth and the controls become hard and frustrating!
float sensitivity = 0.8f;
Vector2 firstPressPos;
Vector2 secondPressPos;
void Update()
{
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
//save began touch 2d point
firstPressPos = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y);
}
if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
{
//save ended touch 2d point
secondPressPos = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y);
if (firstPressPos != secondPressPos)
{
float RotX = Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivity * Time.deltaTime;
float RotY = Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivity * Time.deltaTime;
transform.RotateAround(Vector3.up, RotX);
transform.RotateAround(Vector3.right, -RotY);
}
}
}

try this code
// Screen Touches
Vector2?[] oldTouchPositions = {
null,
null
};
// Rotation Speed
public float rotSpeed = 0.5f;
public void Update()
{
if (Input.touchCount == 0)
{
oldTouchPositions[0] = null;
oldTouchPositions[1] = null;
}
else if (Input.touchCount == 1)
{
if (oldTouchPositions[0] == null || oldTouchPositions[1] != null)
{
oldTouchPositions[0] = Input.GetTouch(0).position;
oldTouchPositions[1] = null;
}
else
{
Vector2 newTouchPosition = Input.GetTouch(0).position;
float distanceX = (oldTouchPositions[0] - newTouchPosition).Value.x;
float distanceY = (oldTouchPositions[0] - newTouchPosition).Value.y;
float rotX = distanceX * rotSpeed * Mathf.Deg2Rad;
float rotY = distanceY * rotSpeed * Mathf.Deg2Rad;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, rotX * 5, Space.Self);
transform.Rotate(Vector3.left, rotY * 5, Space.Self);
oldTouchPositions[0] = newTouchPosition;
}
}
else
{
if (oldTouchPositions[1] == null)
{
oldTouchPositions[0] = Input.GetTouch(0).position;
oldTouchPositions[1] = Input.GetTouch(1).position;
}
else
{
}
}
}

Here's a script I found a few years back that manipulates X axis spin with Mouse or Touches. It seems to work well with touches, but not as good with Mouse. Try it and let me know if it behaves a bit better. This one should adjust the spinning speed dynamically:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class SpinDrag : MonoBehaviour {
float f_lastX = 0.0f;
float f_difX = 0.5f;
float f_steps = 0.0f;
int i_direction = 1;
// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
f_difX = 0.0f;
}
else if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
{
f_difX = Mathf.Abs(f_lastX - Input.GetAxis("Mouse X"));
if (f_lastX < Input.GetAxis("Mouse X"))
{
i_direction = -1;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, -f_difX);
}
if (f_lastX > Input.GetAxis("Mouse X"))
{
i_direction = 1;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, f_difX);
}
f_lastX = -Input.GetAxis("Mouse X");
}
else
{
if (f_difX > 0.5f) f_difX -= 0.05f;
if (f_difX < 0.5f) f_difX += 0.05f;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, f_difX * i_direction);
}
}
}

Unity 2018 C# - Fbx Running animation scaling with Input?

I have figured out how to get fbx animations working in Unity for my character in my adventure game, but now I wish to have my character's running animation move with its speed of motion being in relation to the input of the control stick on an xbox controller.
In addition, when I add a walking animation in the future I wish to make a threshold for the control stick input so that the character walks when there is minimal input from the control stick and running when there is more input from the control stick. Any advice?
Here is my code.

FPS camera with y-axis limit to certain angle

I am starting a new game and right now my player can view 360* but I want to limit how far the player looks up in the sky and down (straight up and down).
Here's my code
Vector2 mouseLook;
Vector2 smoothV;
public float sensitivity = 5.0f;
public float smoothing = 2.0f;
GameObject player;
void Start () {
player = this.transform.parent.gameObject;
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
var md = new Vector2(Input.GetAxisRaw("Mouse X"), Input.GetAxisRaw("Mouse Y"));
md = Vector2.Scale(md, new Vector2(sensitivity * smoothing, sensitivity * smoothing));
smoothV.x = Mathf.Lerp(smoothV.x, md.x, 1f / smoothing);
smoothV.y = Mathf.Lerp(smoothV.y, md.y, 1f / smoothing);
mouseLook += smoothV;
transform.localRotation = Quaternion.AngleAxis(-mouseLook.y, Vector3.right);
player.transform.localRotation = Quaternion.AngleAxis(mouseLook.x, player.transform.up);
}
}

You have to use Mathf.Clamp to do this. Below is what I use to rotate the camera up/down and left/right. You can modify the yMaxLimit and yMinLimit variables to the angles you want to limit it to. There should be no limit while moving in the x direction.
public float xMoveThreshold = 1000.0f;
public float yMoveThreshold = 1000.0f;
public float yMaxLimit = 45.0f;
public float yMinLimit = -45.0f;
float yRotCounter = 0.0f;
float xRotCounter = 0.0f;
Transform player;
void Start()
{
player = Camera.main.transform;
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
xRotCounter += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * xMoveThreshold * Time.deltaTime;
yRotCounter += Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * yMoveThreshold * Time.deltaTime;
yRotCounter = Mathf.Clamp(yRotCounter, yMinLimit, yMaxLimit);
//xRotCounter = xRotCounter % 360;//Optional
player.localEulerAngles = new Vector3(-yRotCounter, xRotCounter, 0);
}
