Question by muffinhat · Sep 07, 2012 at 10:20 PM · c#objectrotate

Rotation to certain degrees while holding a button? C#

On my 3rd person shooter, when I press shift, it makes the character sprint. Since I am still quite a novice at working around game scripting, I need help with a certain feature I wish to add.

When the shift button is held, I want the character's gun to rotate upwards. The problem is, I only know how to script something to keep rotating as long as the button is pressed.

I plan to make this an independent script, so I have no reference. Can anyone point out how I can rotate an object to a certain amount of degrees while a button is pressed, and when the button is released, the object will rotate to it's original position?

If anyone can help me out, thank you so much!

I belive using the Vector3.Lerp function would work for this. I have not tested this but the code would run something like this.

 public float speed = 1;
 public Vector3 startRotation;
 public Vector3 endRotation;
 
 void Update() {
 if(Input.GetButton(KeyCode.LeftShift)) {
 transform.rotation.eulerAngles = Vector3.Lerp(startRotation, endRotation, speed * Time.deltaTime);
 }
 else {
 transform.rotation.eulerAngles = Vector3.Lerp(endRotation, startRotation, speed * Time.deltaTime);
 }
 }

Set the start and end Vector3 to the appropriate rotations in degrees. Hope this works!
