Question by angrycarrots · Feb 17, 2013 at 05:52 AM · c#location

How To Get the Direction Im Facing? Im new Please Help

     float num = 0;
     float speed = 1.5f;
     
     void Start () {
     
     }
     
          
  
     void Update()
     {
            if (Input.GetKey("q"))
            {
              if (num < 1) {
               num += Time.deltaTime * speed;
               transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler (Vector3.Lerp(new Vector3(0,0,0), new Vector3(0,0,30f), num ));
              }
            } else {
              if (num > 0) {
               num -= Time.deltaTime * speed;
               transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler (Vector3.Lerp(new Vector3(0,0,0), new Vector3(0,0,30f), num ));    
               }
              }
     }



SO this code is so that when I press "Q", I will lean to the left and when im not pressing it, I will go back to normal. When I look around and then start leaning again, my view gets teleported back to facing the front position. Im assuming its because my vector is setting everything at 0. What do i replace it with so that it wont teleport my view back? Thanks ssoooooo much

For the direction you are facing I believe you can use Quaternion.identity

If you want to get the forward direction, you can use transform.forward. Or transform.left, etc...

Here is the Transform docs: http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/Transform.html

You might also want to try the TransformDirection: http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/Transform.TransformDirection.html

If you have a rigid body you can add a force to the right, and then add a force back when you let go.

I noticed you have an else, which like you said, will get called every frame back to 0. You might do a bool that when Q is pressed, set a bool, and then if Q isn't pressed and the bool is true, then only do the force on the rigid body back in the original direction... or your right side or whatever direction you came from.
