Simple Boundaries For Movement
So I'm making a game where you basically move side to side dodging obstacles. It is pretty simple, but what I don't know how to do is make it so that you can't move out of the camera's view. Here's my code, it is pretty simple, but I just need to know how to get bounds in there:
#pragma strict
function Update ()
{
if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.A)) transform.Translate (Vector3(-6,0,0) * Time.deltaTime);
if (Input.GetKey (KeyCode.D)) transform.Translate (Vector3(6,0,0) * Time.deltaTime);
}
If you couldn't tell, it is a javascript code. It only has the code for moving, not bounds, so if anybody knows how to do that, please tell me. Thanks.
Hi,
You can use the WorldToScreenPoint to calculate it easily
Transform obj;
Camera CalculationCam;
public void CheckBoundries()
{
Vector2 ObjScreenpoint = CalculationCam.WorldToScreenPoint(obj.transform.position);
if (ObjScreenpoint.x < 0 )
{
// obj is too much left
} else if (ObjScreenpoint.x > Screen.width)
{
// obj is too much right
}
if (ObjScreenpoint.y < 0)
{
// obj is too much down
}
else if (ObjScreenpoint.y > Screen.height)
{
// obj is too much Up
}
}
Good Luck SFC
You could move the camera with the player
OR
Create a Box Collider at the borders
And make the player collide with them
Hope it works
The game mechanics involve the camera being stationary, so I can't do that. The problem with the colliders is that 1) The colliders may interfere with other colliders and 2) Usually when I make colliders the objects do not stop fully at the colliders, rather they bounce in and out of the collider borders... Are there any other ways?
