Player Camera Tutorial and some modifications

unity
#1

I try this cam from tutorial Camera Tutorial. But I want rotate player without mouse click. One problem I can’t fix, player rotate slower then camera I want cam behind player, where local camera will be rotation in y = 0. I’m really noob in player movement :slight_smile: Thanks for eny help with this.

            // Grab the camera from the Unity scene
            cameraT = Camera.main.transform;
            // Set the camera as a child of the Player to easily ensure the camera follows the Player
            cameraT.parent = transform;
            // Set the camera rotation and zoom distance to some initial values
            cameraRotation = SimulationSettings.InitialThirdPersonCameraRotation;

                var yaw = (cameraRotation.eulerAngles.y + Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * SimulationSettings.ThirdPersonCameraSensitivity) % 360f;
                var pitch = Mathf.Clamp(cameraRotation.eulerAngles.x - Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * SimulationSettings.ThirdPersonCameraSensitivity,
                        SimulationSettings.ThirdPersonCameraMinPitch,
                        SimulationSettings.ThirdPersonCameraMaxPitch);
                cameraRotation = UnityEngine.Quaternion.Euler(new Vector3(pitch, yaw, 0));

            transform.rotation = UnityEngine.Quaternion.Euler(new Vector3(0, yaw, 0)) ;

            PlayerRotationWriter.Send(new PlayerRotation.Update().SetBearing(transform.eulerAngles.y));
        }

        // Update the position and orientation of the camera to match the cameraRotation and cameraDistance
        private void SetCameraTransform()
        {
            // Set the position of the camera based on the desired rotation towards and distance from the Player model
            cameraT.localPosition = cameraRotation * Vector3.back * cameraDistance + cameraTransform;
            
            // Set the camera to look towards the Player model
            cameraT.LookAt(transform.position + lookOffset);

        }
    }

Unity forums are better for questions like this - I found this little snippet here and a more recent one here

Maybe you have right :slight_smile:
Sometimes I write and later think.
Cheers.
