How to make this camera movement smoother without removing the limitations

Question

Hello,

I would like this camera movement code to be smoother, and I have no idea how to implement that. If you could post a solution then ill be very thankful..

Thanks

 public class LimitedCamera : MonoBehaviour
 {
     public float LimitAngleX = 10f;
     public float LimitAngleY = 10f;
 
     private float AngleX;
     private float AngleY;
     public void Update()
     {
         var angles = transform.localEulerAngles;
 
         var xAxis = Input.GetAxis("Mouse X");
         var yAxis = Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y");
 
         AngleX = Mathf.Clamp(AngleX - yAxis, -LimitAngleX, LimitAngleY);
         AngleY = Mathf.Clamp(AngleY + xAxis, -LimitAngleY, LimitAngleY);
 
         angles.x = AngleX;
         angles.y = AngleY;
 
         transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(angles);
 
         transform.localEulerAngles = angles;
     }
 }

What do you mean by smooth? Im not sure exactly how to help you, maybe if you can give me a bit more information about your problem.

You might want to look into Vector3.SmoothDamp.

At the end of your script, where you simply set transform.localRotation, remove both

      transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(angles);
 
      transform.localEulerAngles = angles;

And change it to something like:

 transform.localEulerAngles = Vector3.SmoothDamp(transform.localEulerAngles, angles, ref currentVelocity, smoothTime);

Don't forget to add these to the top of your script:

 float currentVelocity;
 float smoothTime = 0.2f; //(Or however fast you want the smoothing to be.)

Or you can check out the Vector3.Lerp.

It is very similar to SmoothDamp.
