parenting a camera with a sphere
i paired a camera with a sphere so the camera would follow the sphere, but when i play it the camera rotates with the sphere. how do i make it just follow?
you could make them separate objects again, add a SmoothFollow camera control script, or make your own script to say in the Update function: transform.position = Vector3(PlayerObject.position.x,PlayerObject.position.y,(PlayerObject.position.z + 5)) don't forget to make a var PlayerObject : Transform; and then attach that javascript to your camera.
i guess i was just in a hurry... and didn't recognize that what i gave was an actual answer. regarless, it's an answer now!
Create a new Javascript, add it to the camera, set it's target as your sphere and tweak the offset coordinates to determine the offset.
> var target : Transform; var offset :
> Vector3;
>
> function LateUpdate(){
> transform.position = target.position + offset; }
Connect the camera to the sphere with a Configurable.Joint and make sure it's X,Y and Z rotation is set to FREE. If you're using physics, which you probably are with a sphere, the camera might affect your physics a little... if so, create an empty game object and attach that to the sphere with the joint and free rotation, then nest the camera to the empty object.
