Gently keep object upright
Hi everyone. I'm using RigidBodies and want to keep one upright, but gently (it should be unnoticable to the user) How can I do this?
I have had success with "transform.localRotation.eulerAngles.x = $$anonymous$$athf.SmoothDampAngle(transform.localRotation.eulerAngles.x, 0.0, yVel, 2.0);" but I how can I detect if the object is facing downwards on its local X axis?
The answer here solved my problem nicely. http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/10425/how-to-stabilize-angular-motion-alignment-of-hover.html
You can freeze the rigidBody's rotation on it's X and Z axis. This way you can still rotate him to look in different directions but he will not fall over.
You can freeze the rotation in the "Contraints" section in the Inspector or the RigidBody component.
I don't want it to be completely frozen, I want it to gradually correct itself.
you can use this to have the object look up smoothly.

This solution works with objects that are transformed, but the original question was about objects rotated using physics
