Making Camera Lerp back to original position
Hello All,
I am Lerping a camera away from its FPC, exploring a bit and then I want to move it back to it's Original FPC
Here's my Code:
Works now: Zoom In:
var target: Transform;
var camPos: Vector3;
var endPos: Vector3;
var time : float;
function OnMouseDown () {
camPos = Vector3( Camera.main.transform.position.x, Camera.main.transform.position.y, Camera.main.transform.position.z);
endPos = Vector3( target.transform.position.x, target.transform.position.y, target.transform.position.z);
var i = 0.0;
var rate = 1.0/time;
while (i < 1.0) {
i += Time.deltaTime * rate;
Camera.main.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(camPos, endPos, i);
yield;
}
}
Zoom Out:
var camPos: Vector3;
var endPos: Vector3;
var time : float;
function OnMouseDown () {
endPos = Vector3( Camera.main.transform.position.x, Camera.main.transform.position.y, Camera.main.transform.position.z);
var i = 0.0;
var rate = 1.0/time;
while (i < 1.0) {
i += Time.deltaTime * rate;
Camera.main.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp( endPos, camPos, i);
yield;
}
}
I was hard coding Vector3's to get it near it's original position (& where the FPC is still) But throughout the gameplay The Cam & FPC became more and more separated which leads to problems Thanks

Don't think that something like that should happen unless your not returning the camera back to its original position...
also, ins$$anonymous$$d of
camPos = Vector3( Camera.main.transform.position.x, Camera.main.transform.position.y, Camera.main.transform.position.z);
why not just do
camPos = Camera.main.transform.position;
?
That won't fix the problem, but looks nicer as the result is the same.. as for the problem..
any chance that you are moving the object while zoo$$anonymous$$g? as in.. you move the character while the camera is zoo$$anonymous$$g in/out so by the time the camera returns to "camPos" the character isn't actually at that spot anymore..
Thanks ShadoX
There is no character, just just the Camera & the First Person Controller Pill. When I Lerp the Camera it leaves the FPC to do so and I just want to get it back to the FPC at the end.
Something like (although not proper js) :
function on$$anonymous$$ouseDown () {
Camera.main.transform.Position = FirstPersonConto;;er.transform.position
}
Thanks

Hello All,
Here's what I found to work that both puts the Camera Back to the FPController and also lerps it more specifically to where you click initially:
Zooom In script:
var target: Transform;
var controller : GameObject;
var camPos: Vector3;
var endPos: Vector3;
var time : float;
function Update () {
var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
}
function OnMouseDown () {
camPos = Vector3( controller.transform.position.x, controller.transform.position.y, controller.transform.position.z);;
endPos = Vector3( target.transform.position.x, target.transform.position.y, target.transform.position.z);
var i = 0.0;
var rate = 1.0/time;
while (i < 1.0) {
i += Time.deltaTime * rate;
Camera.main.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(camPos, endPos, i);
yield;
}
}
THEN Zoom Out Script :
var target: Transform;
var controller : GameObject;
var camPos: Vector3;
var endPos: Vector3;
var time : float;
function Update () {
var controller : CharacterController = GetComponent(CharacterController);
}
function OnMouseDown () {
endPos = Vector3( Camera.main.transform.position.x, Camera.main.transform.position.y, Camera.main.transform.position.z);
camPos = Vector3( controller.transform.position.x, controller.transform.position.y, controller.transform.position.z);;
var i = 0.0;
var rate = 1.0/time;
while (i < 1.0) {
i += Time.deltaTime * rate;
Camera.main.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp( endPos, camPos, i);
yield;
}
}
