why can't i divide rb2D.velocity.x by rb2D.velocity.x? [Fixed]
I'm trying to make an enemy lean to the rb2D.velocity.x by dividing it by rb2D.velocity.x which equals 1 and then do 1 * -12.5f but it only say an error saying : Assertion failed on expression: 'CompareApproximately(SqrMagnitude(result), 1.0F)'
where is the code? Yes rb2D.velocity.x/rb2D.velocity.x=1 but did you know that rb2D.velocity.x/rb2D.velocity.x * -12.5f = -12.5f? Why not just put in -12.5f instead of wasting computations? Maybe the answer is in your code..
Hello,
it would be easier to help you with the code you made. On the other hand, if you divide A by A, why not use 1? (The only case where A / A! = 1 is when A == 0, for which we have an indeterminate form)
@jmhoubre, thank you for answering, but apparently, the bug wasn't co$$anonymous$$g from the code it was from the A* pathfinding I was using, apparently, the A* pathfinding I was using didn't use rigidbody2Ds so it didn't change the velocity.x of the rigidbody which was why it didn't work
So it actually was the case that your x velocity was 0 and as jmhoubre correctly inferred, 0/0 is NaN (not a number). That's why the internal check failed because you tried to set some internal value to NaN. It's still a mystery why you divide the same value by itself.
