How to move player by grabbing world space?

hi!

I'm trying to code a locomotion system similar to Lone Echo/Sprint Vector, but it's my first time using Unity's XR Toolkit on the Rift S (also I'm still learning to code).

The mechanic: user keeps a button down and then drags the world to move.

My code works to bind the controller position to the world but the player sort of blinks to a spot right after pressing the button and before you've dragged.

Two days and I honestly have no idea. Idk if it's an XR Toolkit/ OVR type of conflict (i tried using the OVRPlayer Controller instead of XRRig, but same thing happens. I've also wondered if it's something about rigidbodies but i tried adding and moving a rb and same thing.

Player XRRig gameobject hierarchy is the same as default.

Code is here>

Any help will lead you closer to nirvana or heaven or whatever.

also, if u know how to do this with OVR i can use any.
