Question by Rafael-Barbosa · Jul 17, 2013 at 03:05 PM · transform.rotatelocal axis

Transform.rotation.y rotating around x and z...

I need the object to rotate around the Y axis ONLY with a value of 90 Degrees. BUT unity is also rotating the x and z around 90 degrees but I only told it to rotate around the Y axis!

here is my code, it is seperated into 2 parts, both of them give me the same results but inversed.

pragma strict

 var RotateLeft : boolean;
 
 function OnMouseDown () {
     
     if(RotateLeft == true){
         transform.parent.gameObject.transform.Rotate(0, -90, 0, Space.Self);
         transform.parent.gameObject.transform.rotation.x = 270;
         transform.parent.gameObject.transform.rotation.z = 0;
     }
         
     if(RotateLeft == false){
         transform.parent.transform.rotation = Quaternion.AngleAxis(90, Vector3.up);
     }
 }

I tryed using transform.rotation.y += 90; but x & z still get messed up...

Transform.rotation is a 4D quaternion, and the individual axes do not directly correspond to euler angles, nor do they use degrees. In other words, you can't use rotation.x = 270. rotation.x is not the x axis, and valid values are -1.0 to 1.0. Don't try to modify quaternions unless you completely understand them. You can use eulerAngles instead, but note what the docs say about not setting the individual axes separately.
