transform.rotation not correctly rotating object
Hello. I'm currently experiencing an issue with the transform.rotation command. When I attempt to transform my object using this command, which points my object using the right stick on an XBOX 360 controller --
transform.rotation = Quaternion(0,(Mathf.Atan2(Input.GetAxis("FIRE X"),Input.GetAxis("FIRE Y")) * Mathf.Rad2Deg )+90,0,0);
it fails to actually execute the rotation correctly. What actually occurs here is that the object will always correctly point up and down at 0 and 180 degrees, but in anything other than the two the object fails to rotate at all, simply hold rotation at 0 or 180 degrees. Is there another way this command can be parsed in which will give the desired effect?
Thanks in advance.
your thinking way too hard. Ins$$anonymous$$d of "FIRE X" try "Horizontal" it's a correctly, pre-defined object used for this stuff. Also "Vertical"
@maroonrs2: "Horizontal" and "Vertical" are not objects ;) They are virtual axis which are defined in the Input$$anonymous$$anager. We don't know to what buttons / axis "FIRE Y" and "FIRE X" are bound to, so i guess he knows what he's doing ;)
Those axes are already being used for vertical and horizontal $$anonymous$$OVE$$anonymous$$ENT, not firing. This script is to be used in a twinstick shooter, therefore I had to create two new axes and also configure them a certain way to perform such. I wasn't aware this site's objective was to obliviously criticize projects and code snippets.
Sure, you set the components of the quaternion manually! The components shouldn't be accessed manually since they doesn't represent angles. Use Quaternion.Euler() to create a rotation of the given euler angles.
For more information see Quaternion
Oh, PEB$$anonymous$$AC error. Why didn't I think about that before? Thanks.
;) a lot people got fooled by this. In other engines that also uses quaternions they usually provide a constructor that takes eulerangles, so it's easy to mix up the two things ;).
Usually no one want's to create a quaternion manually :D
