Move object relative to its axis
Hello,
I have an object that gets rotated on the y axis during the game. I want it to move with WASD, but it only moves accordingly to the world axis and not accordingly to its own axis.
Any help?
if (Input.mousePosition.x < mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position += Vector3(-MovingSpeed, 0, 0);
}
if (Input.mousePosition.x >= Screen.width - mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position += Vector3(MovingSpeed, 0, 0);
}
if (Input.mousePosition.y < mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position += Vector3(0, 0, -MovingSpeed);
}
if (Input.mousePosition.y > Screen.height - mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position += Vector3(0, 0, MovingSpeed);
}
Have you tried localposition? transforms have 2 sets of values, local and world. Try local and see how it turns out.
Move it with Transform.Translate. The second parameter of this function defines if translation is relative to local or world coordinate system.
I give my vote to Transform.Translate(), but for the sake of completeness, you can use the transform.up, transform.right, and transform.forward for local movement:
if (Input.mousePosition.x < mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position += transform.right * $$anonymous$$ovingSpeed;
}
if (Input.mousePosition.x >= Screen.width - mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position -= transform.right * $$anonymous$$ovingSpeed;
}
if (Input.mousePosition.y < mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position -= transform.forward * $$anonymous$$ovingSpeed;
}
if (Input.mousePosition.y > Screen.height - mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position += transform.forward * $$anonymous$$ovingSpeed;
}
An alternative to using Transform.Translate, something like:
if (Input.mousePosition.x < mouseArea)
{
cameraObject.position += MovingSpeed * -cameraObject.right;
}
transform.right is the Vector facing right from where the object is facing, same concept with transform.up and transform.forward
