C# Unity 3D Lock Rotation but allow Rotation of Parent Object
I need to create a script that allows an Object to rotate while the other parented object Does not, how would i go about doing this?
Edit: Or would it be easier to create a script that mimics movement of an object?
Well, if you don't want them to rotate together, are you sure that using transform parenting is the way to go? Copying an object's position is as simple as using
using UnityEngine;
public class FollowTransform : MonoBehaviour { // Assign in the editor the transform you want to follow; public Transform target;
void LateUpdate()
{
transform.position = target.position;
}
}
And that way it doesn't scale or rotate with the parent the way a transform child would.
Of course, there might be a very good reason for wanting them in the same hierarchy (for SendMessage purposes, etc.). In that case, the answer will change a little.
That piece of code gives me a compile error Edit: Placed it into a seperate file but it isn't showing a target variable in Unity
huh? I assumed that you knew how to declare public variables... Fine, I'll edit my answer to include all the fiddly details.
One EDIT: later: There, working yet?
That works perfectly, Thank you.
But im using a camera and its placed inside my object, would you know any idea about how i would make it move from a difference Pos? Adding an number to the X,Y,Z? and finally whats the difference between LateUpdate and Update
Edit: I created an empty GameObject and Parented that to the object, and got the camera to target the empty Gameobject and now got exactly what i wanted, Thank you so much for the help.
