Character jitters when Moving my camera

Hello, I'm having a problem here... so I have a third person camera set up, and my character goes in the position my camera is pointed in. However when I move my camera, the character moves with it, but in a really jittery motion. I know it has to be a problem with the camera, because when im moving without orbiting the camera around the character, the movement is smooth. here's the code: using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; public class TPCamera : MonoBehaviour { public static TPCamera Instance; public Transform TargetLookAt; public float Distance = 5f; public float DistanceMin = 3f; public float DistanceMax = 10f; public float DistanceSmooth = 0.05f; public float X_MouseSensitivity = 5f; public float Y_MouseSensitivity = 5f; public float MouseWheelSensitivity = 5f; public float X_Smooth = 0.05f; public float Y_Smooth = 0.1f;

// calculate desired position desiredPosition = CalculatePosition(mouseY, mouseX, Distance); } Vector3 CalculatePosition(float rotationX, float rotationY, float distance) { Vector3 direction = new Vector3(0, 0, -distance); Quaternion rotation = Quaternion.Euler(rotationX, rotationY, 0); return TargetLookAt.position + rotation * direction; } bool CheckIfOccluded(int count) { var isOccluded = false; var nearDistance = CheckCameraPoints(TargetLookAt.position, desiredPosition); if (nearDistance != -1) { if (count < MaxOcclusionChecks) { isOccluded = true; Distance -= OcclusionDistanceStep; if (Distance < 0.25) Distance = 0.25f; } else { Distance = nearDistance - Camera.main.nearClipPlane; desiredDistance = Distance; } } return isOccluded; } float CheckCameraPoints(Vector3 from, Vector3 to) { var nearDistance = -1f; RaycastHit hitInfo; Helper.ClipPlanePoints clipPlanePoints = Helper.ClipPlaneAtNear(to);

HandlePlayerInput(); var count = 0; do { CalculateDesiredPosition(); count++; } while (CheckIfOccluded(count)); UpdatePosition(); } void HandlePlayerInput() { var deadZone = 0.1f; if (Input.GetMouseButton(1)) { // The RMB is DOWN get mouse Axis input mouseX += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * X_MouseSensitivity; mouseY -= Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * Y_MouseSensitivity; } // This is where we will limit or clamp mouseY mouseY = Helper.ClampAngle(mouseY, Y_MinLimit, Y_MaxLimit); if (Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") < -deadZone || Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") > deadZone) { desiredDistance = Mathf.Clamp(Distance - Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * MouseWheelSensitivity, DistanceMin, DistanceMax);
