How can i rotate the camera to the player facing direction ?
The script is attached to the Main Camera. The player is ThirdPersonController.
Now when i move the player the camera follow him but not rotating so if i move the player to the right the camera will follow it and move to the right. Instead i want the camera to rotate to where the place is facing and follow him. So if the player is facing to the right and move to the right rotate the camera to this direction and be behind the player. Now the camera is not behind the player it's beside the player.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class CameraController : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject player; //Public variable to store a reference to the player game object
private Vector3 offset; //Private variable to store the offset distance between the player and camera
// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
//Calculate and store the offset value by getting the distance between the player's position and camera's position.
offset = transform.position - player.transform.position;
}
// LateUpdate is called after Update each frame
void LateUpdate()
{
// Set the position of the camera's transform to be the same as the player's, but offset by the calculated offset distance.
transform.position = player.transform.position + offset;
transform.LookAt(player.transform);
}
}
My understanding is you want camera to follow behind him, right? Your code is only applied an offset from him. so you should consider a rotation of him. Maybe my code is work well, please try it.
transform.position = player.transform.position + (-player.transform.forward * offset.magnitude);
Note: above code is a little bad. so you should cache an offset magnitude because the magnitude is a little heavy for calculation.
