Click drag change animation speed based on dragging speed

So I took what you presented and added the mouse position. Then I just take the Distance and use the distance part in my script. So that if its over a Certain number etc

(Just repasting your code with the mouse section in it:

     Vector3 lastMousePosition = Vector3.zero;
     void OnMouseDrag()
     {
         Vector3 currentMousePosition = Input.mousePosition;
 
         Vector3 delta = currentMousePosition - lastMousePosition;
 
         float distance = delta.magnitude;
 
         lastMousePosition = currentMousePosition;
 
         print("distance " + distance);
     }

I will paste how I add the animation component later

Ok so I ended up putting it in the update section. I put a Bool variable in my code to basically turn on/off the drag mouse detection. I put the enable into an if statement for Input.GetMouseButton(0) in the update section as well. I also Divide the output from distance so that the value is something that works in the animator instead of giving me numbers like 64.0 etc I get 0.64 and that works with the animators speed. (Also note you will have to declare anim earlier in your script as the animator. Hope this helps someone looking for this answer too! Thank you again @NPnpNPnpNP

             if(mouseDragEnable)
             {
                 anim = MainController.PennyChar.GetComponent<Animator>();
 
                 Vector3 currentMousePosition = Input.mousePosition;
 
                 Vector3 delta = currentMousePosition - lastMousePosition;
 
                 float distance = delta.magnitude;
 
                 lastMousePosition = currentMousePosition;
 
                 //Divide the distance by 100 because otherwise it will be the wrong value
                 //AnimationBoost will boost the animation speed base
                 float x = distance / 100f;
                 
                 anim.speed = x;
 
             }
