Question by $$anonymous$$ · Sep 04, 2020 at 08:35 AM · movetowardswhilewhile-loopwhile loop

Vector3.MoveTowards becomes instant in while loop or freezes unity

   bool inputMove;
   bool canReturn;
 
   float mainSpeed = 16
 
 
   void Update()
     {
         if (Input.anyKeyDown)
         {
             if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Escape))
             {
                 // da
             }
             else
             {
                 if (!inputMove)
                 {
                     inputMove = true;
                 }
             }
         }
 
         while (inputMove)
         {
             print("inputMove = true");
             float step = mainSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
             transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, new Vector3(0f, 2.4f, 0f), step);
             if (transform.position == new Vector3(0f, 2.4f, 0f))
             {
                 inputMove = false;
                 canReturn = true;
             }
         }
 
         while (canReturn)
         {
             print("canReturn = true");
             float step = mainSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
             transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, new Vector3(0f, 4.4f, 0f), step);
             if (transform.position == new Vector3(0f, 4.4f, 0f))
             {
                 canReturn = false;
             }
         }
     }

at 16 and 1.6 for mainSpeed it just moves the game object instantly and when I try lower values for mainSpeed it starts freezes a bit and then the game object doesn't move and when I get to 0.016 and lower for mainSpeed unity freezes completely

Just replace your "while" statements with "if" statements! The problem you have is, that your script asks at least 60 times a second, to move an Object in a single frame to a specific location. So why not just assigning the location directly, if you really want that, instead of looping the hell out of it? If that's not what you want, just replace while with if and you're good. While loops are very mean, if you use them wrong, especially with wiggly float values. You have to match the exact float values in order to stop the loop. That's why it could freeze, if you miss them in a frame.
