Question by mobilekg · Sep 28, 2011 at 03:27 AM · 2d rotation flip

Why this flip rotation only works for parent, but not child?

Need to flip a 2D MC around Z-axis and keep shot on the X-Y plane at the same time.

Here is the code I used for the flip to the MC Parent Gameobject:

 transform.localScale = new Vector3 (-1f * transform.localScale.x, transform.localScale.y, transform.localScale.z);

It looks OK. But the muzzle child inside the MC Gameobject doesn't flip.

 MuzzleTransform = transform.Find ("Parent/Weapon/LaserGun/Muzzle");

MuzzleTransform.position seems not perfectly flipped.

How to fix this bug or there is better way to flip the MC?

Thanks in advance!

Why are you trying to adjust the local scale? What's wrong with?

 //flips across the Z axis, stays in X-Y plane
 transform.eulerAngles += (0,0, 180);

or alternatively

 transform.localEulerAngles += (0, 0, 180);
