Question by tmarshall619 · May 11, 2018 at 04:36 PM · time.deltatimecounterdurationinfinity

My simple math operation is returning infinity and I can't figure out why.

I'm having an issue that I can't quite pin down. I'm trying to lerp the orthographic size of the camera over a set number of seconds ( slowSizeDuration), but my counter for the lerp function (slowSizeTimer) is only returning infinity. slowSizeTimer is initialized to 0.001f in start.

         if(slowSizeTimer > slowSizeDuration && slowSize == true){
             slowSize = false;
         }else{
             slowSizeTimer += (Time.deltaTime/slowSizeDuration);
             Debug.Log(slowSizeTimer + " - " + Time.deltaTime + " - " + slowSizeDuration  + " - " + Time.deltaTime/slowSizeDuration);
         }

The Debug Log shows this every frame: Infinity - 0.02 - 5 - 0.004

Can you share how and where you're setting slowSizeDuration? Is it int or float? The two possible reasons that spring to $$anonymous$$d are: 1) It is set to zero somehow (either not initialized in code, or set zero in the inspector) 2) It is defined as an int or calculated as an int / int division which is getting rounded down to zero.

Good day.

If slowSizeTimer is giving infinity, slowSizeDuration is causing it. And we dont see where it comes from.

Thanks, the apparent issue was that slowSizeDuration was initialized to 0 and continued to be computed as such, even after the value was changed in a later function call.
