orbit camera around player using arrow keys.
I am trying to orbit my camera around the player using the arrow keys. I have my game set up to click and you move where you click. I would also like to scroll in and out to zoom in and out a little, this is what code I have at the moment.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class cameraOrbit : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed = 0.1f;
public void FixedUpdate()
{
if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow))
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x + speed, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
}
if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow))
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x - speed, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
}
if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.DownArrow))
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y - speed, transform.position.z);
}
if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.UpArrow))
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y + speed, transform.position.z);
}
}
}
but... you are not orbiting in that script you are only applying linear movement right?
You can use this other approach change it for you fixedupdate method and test it
void Update() { float direction = 0; if(input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightArrow)) { direction =1; } else if(Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftArrow)) { direction = -1; } transform.RotateArround(position, Vector3.up, speed time.deltaTime direction); }
