Question by bundy2k6 · Apr 17, 2013 at 09:42 PM · character controlleritween2.5dpaths

iTween Path Controlled

enter code hereHey guys,

O.k so I found this really cool path example from itween that I would love to manipulate to use my own controls. As it stands you can draw a path and the object will follow. What I would like to achieve is the ability to control the character rather than it just running from point A to point B. Is there anyway I can direct this code to use the Unity 3rd person character controller??? Here's the code

Oh, and thanks in advance!

 var path : Transform[];
 var style : GUIStyle;
 private var buttonActivated : boolean;
 
 function Start(){
     tween();
 }
 
 function OnGUI () {
     if(buttonActivated){
         if(GUI.Button (Rect (67,178,113,32), "",style)){
             reset();
             tween();
         }
     }
 }
 
 function OnDrawGizmos(){
     iTween.DrawPath(path);
 }
 
 function tween(){
     iTween.MoveTo(gameObject,{"path":path,"time":7,"orienttopath":true,"looktime":.6,"easetype":"easeInOutSine","oncomplete":"complete"});    
 }
 
 function reset(){
     buttonActivated=false;
     transform.position=Vector3(0,0,0);
     transform.eulerAngles=Vector3(0,0,0);
 }
 
 function complete(){
     buttonActivated=true;
 }

Please format your code. Edit your question, select your code and use the 101/010 button. Far more people will read your question if you format your code.

As for iTween, you will have to manage your path by hand. You can use iTween.PutOnPath() and/or iTween.PointOnPath(). The last parameter in these two functions is a fraction of how far along the path you want to place the object. You don't need a character controller, just the input of a couple of keys to increase or decrease the fraction. Something like this for forward.:

 if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.UpArrow)) {
     fraction += speed * Time.deltaTime;
     fraction = Mathf.Clamp01(fraction);
 }

Obviously you will need to define fraction and speed at the top of the file.
