fixing rotation on a specific axis
I found this script on a forum for almost what i was looking for:
var X_RotationLockedAt : int ; //locking the rotation at a certain angle for X
var Y_RotationLockedAt : int ; //locking the rotation at a certain angle for Y
var Z_RotationLockedAt : int ; //locking the rotation at a certain angle for Z
function FixedUpdate(){
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(X_RotationLockedAt, Y_RotationLockedAt, Z_RotationLockedAt);
}
But how do i get it to only freeze on one axis for example freeze on the Y axis but move with the parent object on X and Z, i tried
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler.Y = Y_RotationLockedAt;
But it didn't work... no errors just didn't work!
Thanks in advance!
Try using this
transform.eulerAngles = Vector3(0, Y_RotationLockedAt, 0); //check : Y_RotationLockedAt is in Euler
I used for C#
transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3(0f,Y_RotationLockedAt,0f);
what do you mean by 'check : Y_RotationLockedAt is in Euler?' i've tried transform.eulerAngles = Vector3(X_RotationLockedAt, 0, Z_RotationLockedAt); as i want to freeze it in all but Y, it must be because it's still set to 0 on all 3... how can i make a var = to a Transform variable's Y rotation, so that i could set the Y value to this number var and make the number var be = to the parent's Y rotation (parent = Transform var)
for example:
var Parent : Transform; var ParentYvalue = 0;
ParentYvalue = to the Y rotation (this is what i don't know how to do)
transform.eulerAngles = Vector3(0, ParentYvalue, 0);
so that when the parent moves, it matches the Y yet the others are still 0 so only the Y moves... but how do i make a float variable = to a Transform variable's Y rotation... thanks look forward to your reply
You can have y rotation in eulers of a parent using this
ParentYvalue = Parent.eulerAngles.y;
then use that in the object which you want to rotate.
transform.eulerAngles = Vector3(0, ParentYvalue , 0);
