Question by Meany747 · Nov 01, 2018 at 01:25 AM · rotationmousemathf.clamplimitations

Limiting localrotation between 2 values

Hey all, I've been spinning wheels on this for a while now, my aim is to lock my localRotation of my little tool arm between my min and max yRotation values.

The commented out code partially worked but ended up having snapping issues when out of the assigned range. alt text Here's some code.

public float traverseSpeed;
public float dist;
public Plane plane; public Quaternion rotation;
public float minRotation;
public float maxRotation;
public float mathClamp; public Vector3 localAngles;
public float yRotationMin;
public float yRotationMax;

void Update(){ //Current

Ray ray = camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
plane = new Plane (Vector3.up, transform.position);

      if (plane.Raycast (ray, out dist)) {
          rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation (ray.GetPoint (dist) - transform.position);             >Debug.Log ("Greater and less than");
          transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards (transform.rotation, rotation, traverseSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
          //NEW //Take 2
          /*localAngles = new Vector3(transform.localEulerAngles.x, transform.localEulerAngles.y, transform.localEulerAngles.z);
          localAngles.y = Mathf.Clamp (transform.localRotation.y, yRotationMin, yRotationMax);
          transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler (localAngles);*/
          /* //Take 1             

if (localAngles.y > yRotationMin && localAngles.y < yRotationMax) { transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards (transform.rotation, rotation, traverseSpeed * Time.deltaTime);

     }
          if (localAngles.y < yRotationMin) {
              transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards (transform.localRotation, minRotation, traverseSpeed * Time.deltaTime);             }
          if (localAngles.y > yRotationMax) {
              transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards (transform.localRotation, maxRotation, traverseSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
          }*/             //}             //New         }     }
 

Any help getting a smooth result would be greatly appreciated!

  void Update(){ //Current
 
 Ray ray = camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
 plane = new Plane (Vector3.up, transform.position);
 
           if (plane.Raycast (ray, out dist)) {
 
               rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation (ray.GetPoint (dist) - transform.position);             >Debug.Log ("Greater and less than");
 
               transform.rotation = Quaternion.RotateTowards (transform.rotation, rotation, traverseSpeed * Time.deltaTime);

At the moment this is the working code, above there are 2 attempts of limiting the rotation outside of the y axis limits to no avail.
