I’m trying to move the camera after the player is teleported to a new location so the camera pulls out from its current location and then moves in to the players new position in a smooth motion.
Ive tried the animation and it automatically moves in spite of me add a trigger to start the animation. I modelled it on a set of door animations i found online.
If anyone has any tips or knows of any tutorials that could help me i would be very grateful
use this script on your camera. Its by far the best smooth follow script.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class SmoothFollow : MonoBehaviour {
// The target we are following
public Transform target;
// The distance in the x-z plane to the target
public float distance = 10.0f;
// the height we want the camera to be above the target
public float height = 5.0f;
// How much we
public float heightDamping = 2.0f;
public float rotationDamping = 3.0f;
// Place the script in the Camera-Control group in the component menu
[AddComponentMenu("Camera-Control/Smooth Follow")]
void LateUpdate () {
// Early out if we don't have a target
if (!target) return;
// Calculate the current rotation angles
float wantedRotationAngle = target.eulerAngles.y;
float wantedHeight = target.position.y + height;
float currentRotationAngle = transform.eulerAngles.y;
float currentHeight = transform.position.y;
// Damp the rotation around the y-axis
currentRotationAngle = Mathf.LerpAngle(currentRotationAngle, wantedRotationAngle, rotationDamping * Time.deltaTime);
// Damp the height
currentHeight = Mathf.Lerp(currentHeight, wantedHeight, heightDamping * Time.deltaTime);
// Convert the angle into a rotation
var currentRotation = Quaternion.Euler(0, currentRotationAngle, 0);
// Set the position of the camera on the x-z plane to:
// distance meters behind the target
transform.position = target.position;
transform.position -= currentRotation * Vector3.forward * distance;
// Set the height of the camera
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x,currentHeight,transform.position.z);
// Always look at the target
transform.LookAt(target);
}
