I have a 3rd person camera which can rotate around the player. My problem is that wherever camera is facing, players forward is always the same direction.
For example when camera is facing the right side of the player, when I press button to move forward, I want player to turn to the left and make that the "new forward".
My camera script so far:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class PlayerScript : MonoBehaviour
{
public float RotateSpeed = 150,
MoveSpeed = 50;
float DeltaTime;
void Update()
{
DeltaTime = Time.deltaTime;
transform.Rotate(0, Input.GetAxis("LeftX") * RotateSpeed * DeltaTime, 0);
transform.Translate(0, 0, -Input.GetAxis("LeftY") * MoveSpeed * DeltaTime);
}
}
public class CameraScript : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject Target;
public float RotateSpeed = 170,
FollowDistance = 20,
FollowHeight = 10;
float RotateSpeedPerTime,
DesiredRotationAngle,
DesiredHeight,
CurrentRotationAngle,
CurrentHeight,
Yaw,
Pitch;
Quaternion CurrentRotation;
void LateUpdate()
{
RotateSpeedPerTime = RotateSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
DesiredRotationAngle = Target.transform.eulerAngles.y;
DesiredHeight = Target.transform.position.y + FollowHeight;
CurrentRotationAngle = transform.eulerAngles.y;
CurrentHeight = transform.position.y;
CurrentRotationAngle = Mathf.LerpAngle(CurrentRotationAngle, DesiredRotationAngle, 0);
CurrentHeight = Mathf.Lerp(CurrentHeight, DesiredHeight, 0);
CurrentRotation = Quaternion.Euler(0, CurrentRotationAngle, 0);
transform.position = Target.transform.position;
transform.position -= CurrentRotation * Vector3.forward * FollowDistance;
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, CurrentHeight, transform.position.z);
Yaw = Input.GetAxis("Right Horizontal") * RotateSpeedPerTime;
Pitch = Input.GetAxis("Right Vertical") * RotateSpeedPerTime;
transform.Translate(new Vector3(Yaw, -Pitch, 0));
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
transform.LookAt(Target.transform);
}
}
