Question by monaim-mtl · Jan 26 at 01:24 PM · 2d2d gameunity 2d

how to make my 2d top down character face the direction of the cursor

I am trying to make my character face the direction of the cursor and i already made him face the direction of the movements but when i use the same logic for the cursor it doesn't work for me .

Not sure what am i doing wrong.

 public class PlayerMovements : MonoBehaviour
 {
     [SerializeField] Camera _camera;
     [SerializeField] Transform _crosshair, _interactor;
     [SerializeField] Animator _animator;
     [SerializeField] float _playerSpeed = 5f, _crosshairDistance = 1f;
     [SerializeField] Rigidbody2D _rigidbody;
     Vector2 _movements, _mouseWorldPos;
     void Update ()
     {
         float inputHorizontal = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
         float inputVertical = Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");
         Vector3 mouseScreenPos = Input.mousePosition;
 
         _movements.x = inputHorizontal;
         _movements.y = inputVertical;
         
         _animator.SetFloat( "Horizontal" , _movements.x );
         _animator.SetFloat( "Vertical" , _movements.y );
         _animator.SetFloat( "Speed" , _movements.sqrMagnitude );
         
         if( inputHorizontal==1 || inputHorizontal==-1 || inputVertical==1 || inputVertical==-1 )
         {
             _animator.SetFloat( "LastHorizontal" , inputHorizontal );
             _animator.SetFloat( "LastVertical" , inputVertical );
         }
 
         if( inputHorizontal>0 ) _interactor.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(0,0,90);
         if( inputHorizontal<0 ) _interactor.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(0,0,-90);
         if( inputVertical>0 ) _interactor.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(0,0,180);
         if( inputVertical<0 ) _interactor.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(0,0,0);
         
         _mouseWorldPos = _camera.ScreenToWorldPoint( mouseScreenPos );
         
         if( mouseScreenPos.x==1 || mouseScreenPos.x==-1 || mouseScreenPos.y==1 || mouseScreenPos.y==-1 )
         {
             _animator.SetFloat("LastHorizontal", mouseScreenPos.x);
             _animator.SetFloat("LastVertical", mouseScreenPos.y);
         }
     }
     void FixedUpdate ()
     {
         _rigidbody.MovePosition( _rigidbody.position+_movements.normalized*_playerSpeed*Time.fixedDeltaTime );
         Vector2 lookingDirection = _mouseWorldPos - _rigidbody.position;
         _crosshair.localPosition = lookingDirection * _crosshairDistance;
     }
 }

unity 2D look at cursor

 using UnityEngine;
 public class PlayerMovements : MonoBehaviour
 {
     [SerializeField] Camera _camera;
     [SerializeField] Transform _crosshair, _interactor;
     [SerializeField] Animator _animator;
     [SerializeField] float _playerSpeed = 5f, _crosshairDistance = 1.4f;
     [SerializeField] Rigidbody2D _rigidbody;
     Vector2 _input, _mouseWorldPos;
     void Update ()
     {
         // read inputs:
         _input.x = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
         _input.y = Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");
         Vector3 mouseScreenPos = Input.mousePosition;
         _mouseWorldPos = _camera.ScreenToWorldPoint( mouseScreenPos );
 
         // look at crosshair (XY plane):
         {
             Vector3 lookDir = _crosshair.position - _interactor.position;
             float lookDirAngle = Mathf.Atan2(lookDir.y,lookDir.x) * Mathf.Rad2Deg;// angle between lookDir and X+ axis
             float correctedLookDirAngle = -90f - lookDirAngle;// we want Z+ to be forward, not X+
             _interactor.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(
                 _interactor.rotation ,
                 Quaternion.AngleAxis( correctedLookDirAngle , -Vector3.forward ) ,
                 10f * Time.deltaTime
             );
         }
         
         // update animator:
         _animator.SetFloat( "Horizontal" , _input.x );
         _animator.SetFloat( "Vertical" , _input.y );
         _animator.SetFloat( "Speed" , _input.sqrMagnitude );
         if( _input.x==1 || _input.x==-1 || _input.y==1 || _input.y==-1 )
         {
             _animator.SetFloat( "LastHorizontal" , _input.x );
             _animator.SetFloat( "LastVertical" , _input.y );
         }
         if( mouseScreenPos.x==1 || mouseScreenPos.x==-1 || mouseScreenPos.y==1 || mouseScreenPos.y==-1 )
         {
             _animator.SetFloat("LastHorizontal", mouseScreenPos.x);
             _animator.SetFloat("LastVertical", mouseScreenPos.y);
         }
     }
     void FixedUpdate ()
     {
         _rigidbody.MovePosition( _rigidbody.position+_input.normalized*_playerSpeed*Time.fixedDeltaTime );
         Vector2 lookingDirection = _mouseWorldPos - _rigidbody.position;
         _crosshair.localPosition = lookingDirection.normalized * _crosshairDistance;
     }
 }
