Rotation smooth in editor but isn't in device

I have a 3D object that I want to rotate with mouse/finger swipe, so I made the script below.
The object's rotation looks smooth on editor, but when playing the game on real device (android), the rotation didn't follow the finger movement immediately, it takes some milliseconds to follow finger, it isn't smooth and the controls become hard and frustrating!
float sensitivity = 0.8f;
Vector2 firstPressPos;
Vector2 secondPressPos;
void Update()
{
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
//save began touch 2d point
firstPressPos = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y);
}
if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
{
//save ended touch 2d point
secondPressPos = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y);
if (firstPressPos != secondPressPos)
{
float RotX = Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivity * Time.deltaTime;
float RotY = Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivity * Time.deltaTime;
transform.RotateAround(Vector3.up, RotX);
transform.RotateAround(Vector3.right, -RotY);
}
}
}

try this code
// Screen Touches
Vector2?[] oldTouchPositions = {
null,
null
};
// Rotation Speed
public float rotSpeed = 0.5f;
public void Update()
{
if (Input.touchCount == 0)
{
oldTouchPositions[0] = null;
oldTouchPositions[1] = null;
}
else if (Input.touchCount == 1)
{
if (oldTouchPositions[0] == null || oldTouchPositions[1] != null)
{
oldTouchPositions[0] = Input.GetTouch(0).position;
oldTouchPositions[1] = null;
}
else
{
Vector2 newTouchPosition = Input.GetTouch(0).position;
float distanceX = (oldTouchPositions[0] - newTouchPosition).Value.x;
float distanceY = (oldTouchPositions[0] - newTouchPosition).Value.y;
float rotX = distanceX * rotSpeed * Mathf.Deg2Rad;
float rotY = distanceY * rotSpeed * Mathf.Deg2Rad;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, rotX * 5, Space.Self);
transform.Rotate(Vector3.left, rotY * 5, Space.Self);
oldTouchPositions[0] = newTouchPosition;
}
}
else
{
if (oldTouchPositions[1] == null)
{
oldTouchPositions[0] = Input.GetTouch(0).position;
oldTouchPositions[1] = Input.GetTouch(1).position;
}
else
{
}
}
}

Here's a script I found a few years back that manipulates X axis spin with Mouse or Touches. It seems to work well with touches, but not as good with Mouse. Try it and let me know if it behaves a bit better. This one should adjust the spinning speed dynamically:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class SpinDrag : MonoBehaviour {
float f_lastX = 0.0f;
float f_difX = 0.5f;
float f_steps = 0.0f;
int i_direction = 1;
// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update()
{
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
{
f_difX = 0.0f;
}
else if (Input.GetMouseButton(0))
{
f_difX = Mathf.Abs(f_lastX - Input.GetAxis("Mouse X"));
if (f_lastX < Input.GetAxis("Mouse X"))
{
i_direction = -1;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, -f_difX);
}
if (f_lastX > Input.GetAxis("Mouse X"))
{
i_direction = 1;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, f_difX);
}
f_lastX = -Input.GetAxis("Mouse X");
}
else
{
if (f_difX > 0.5f) f_difX -= 0.05f;
if (f_difX < 0.5f) f_difX += 0.05f;
transform.Rotate(Vector3.up, f_difX * i_direction);
}
}
}

Zoom camera in/out with Mouse Scrollwheel via the transform instead of fov?

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class MouseOrbit : MonoBehaviour {
public Transform target;
public float distance = 5.0f;
public float xSpeed = 120.0f;
public float ySpeed = 120.0f;
public float yMinLimit = -20f;
public float yMaxLimit = 80f;
public float distanceMin = .5f;
public float distanceMax = 15f;
private Rigidbody rigidbody;
float x = 0.0f;
float y = 0.0f;
float minFov = 15f;
float maxFov = 90f;
float sensitivity = 10f;
// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
Vector3 angles = transform.eulerAngles;
x = angles.y;
y = angles.x;
rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
// Make the rigid body not change rotation
if (rigidbody != null)
{
rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
}
}
void Update()
{
// Updating camera distance on every frame
distance = RayCast3.distance3;
//Setting maximum distance so the camera doesnt go too far
if (distance > 2)
{
distance = 2;
}
}
void LateUpdate()
{
if (target)
{
x += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * xSpeed * distance * 0.02f;
y -= Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * ySpeed * 0.02f;
y = ClampAngle(y, yMinLimit, yMaxLimit);
Quaternion rotation = Quaternion.Euler(y, x, 0);
//distance = Mathf.Clamp(distance - Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * 5, distanceMin, distanceMax);
//distance += Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * sensitivity;
float fov = Camera.main.fieldOfView;
fov += Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * sensitivity;
fov = Mathf.Clamp(fov, minFov, maxFov);
Camera.main.fieldOfView = fov;
RaycastHit hit;
if (Physics.Linecast(target.position, transform.position, out hit))
{
distance -= hit.distance;
}
Vector3 negDistance = new Vector3(0.0f, 0.0f, -distance);
Vector3 position = rotation * negDistance + target.position;
transform.rotation = rotation;
transform.position = position;
}
}
public static float ClampAngle(float angle, float min, float max)
{
if (angle < -360F)
angle += 360F;
if (angle > 360F)
angle -= 360F;
return Mathf.Clamp(angle, min, max);
}
}
Now i'm using fov:
And it's working fine.
float fov = Camera.main.fieldOfView;
fov += Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * sensitivity;
fov = Mathf.Clamp(fov, minFov, maxFov);
Camera.main.fieldOfView = fov;
But now i want to use the distance variable and not fov.
So i tried first the line:
distance = Mathf.Clamp(distance - Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * 5, distanceMin, distanceMax);
It didn't work so i tried the line:
distance += Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * sensitivity;
But in both lines the character is stuttering and it's not zooming in out with the mouse wheel.

It's really simple. Get mouse scroll wheel speed then multiply it by some speed value. You can also multiply it by Time.deltaTime if you want. Finally use transform.Translate to move the camera with that value.
This will move in z-axis:
private float zoomSpeed = 2.0f;
void Update()
{
float scroll = Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel");
transform.Translate(0, 0, scroll * zoomSpeed, Space.World);
}
Or where camera is facing:
private float zoomSpeed = 5.0f;
void Update()
{
float scroll = Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel");
transform.position += this.transform.forward * scroll * zoomSpeed;
}

You should calculate a delta between your camera point and your target point. Normalize it and multiply it with the scrollwheel delta. Add this on your camera position. I used the camera target as angle to zoom-in.
Pseudo:
var delta = cameraTarget - cameraPosition;
delta.Normalize();
cameraPosition += delta * ScrollWheel.delta * sensitivity;
// you can even move your cameraTarget in the same direction
cameraTarget += delta * ScrollWheel.delta * sensitivity;
You can use the distance instead of calculating a delta.

C#/Unity Camera rotation

Im trying to make it so that the camera always follows the ball, but i can only rotate it when i hold down rightclick. although, right now, it only follows the ball when i hold right click aswell. Is there a way to seperate the two?
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class Orbit2 : MonoBehaviour {
public Transform target;
public float distance = 5.0f;
public float xSpeed = 120.0f;
public float ySpeed = 120.0f;
public float yMinLimit = -20f;
public float yMaxLimit = 80f;
public float distanceMin = .5f;
public float distanceMax = 15f;
private Rigidbody rigidbody;
float x = 0.0f;
float y = 0.0f;
// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
Vector3 angles = transform.eulerAngles;
x = angles.y;
y = angles.x;
rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
// Make the rigid body not change rotation
if (rigidbody != null)
{
rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
}
}
void LateUpdate()
{
if (target
&& Input.GetMouseButton(1))
{
x += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * xSpeed * distance * 0.02f;
y -= Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * ySpeed * 0.02f;
y = ClampAngle(y, yMinLimit, yMaxLimit);
Quaternion rotation = Quaternion.Euler(y, x, 0);
distance = Mathf.Clamp(distance - Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * 5, distanceMin, distanceMax);
RaycastHit hit;
if (Physics.Linecast(target.position, transform.position, out hit))
{
distance -= hit.distance;
}
Vector3 negDistance = new Vector3(0.0f, 0.0f, -distance);
Vector3 position = rotation * negDistance + target.position;
transform.rotation = rotation;
transform.position = position;
}
}
public static float ClampAngle(float angle, float min, float max)
{
if (angle < -360F)
angle += 360F;
if (angle > 360F)
angle -= 360F;
return Mathf.Clamp(angle, min, max);
}
}

It looks like you want the rotation to happen only when the right mouse button is held down. If this is true, then remove Input.GetMouseButton(1) from where it is now and then wrap it around transform.rotation = rotation;. It is as simple as that. FYI, you don't even need if (target). That is unnecessary but I leave it as it is.

2D desktop control conversion to mobile controls c# & unityscript?

hope you all are doing good, friends i have a problem with my controls i build a 2d game, the game controls work fine for desktop but for mobile they are not working as expected, this is a script i am using for character moment. from mouse but instead of moving character this script make the camera follow it self or where the courser or finger presses and touches.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class MouseLook : MonoBehaviour
{
public enum RotationAxes { MouseXAndY = 0, MouseX = 1, MouseY = 2 }
public RotationAxes axes = RotationAxes.MouseXAndY;
public float sensitivityX = 15F;
public float sensitivityY = 15F;
public float minimumX = -360F;
public float maximumX = 360F;
public float minimumY = -60F;
public float maximumY = 60F;
float rotationY = 0F;
void Update ()
{
if (axes == RotationAxes.MouseXAndY)
{
float rotationX = transform.localEulerAngles.y + Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivityX;
rotationY += Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivityY;
rotationY = Mathf.Clamp (rotationY, minimumY, maximumY);
transform.localEulerAngles = new Vector3(-rotationY, rotationX, 0);
}
else if (axes == RotationAxes.MouseX)
{
transform.Rotate(0, Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivityX, 0);
}
else
{
rotationY += Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivityY;
rotationY = Mathf.Clamp (rotationY, minimumY, maximumY);
transform.localEulerAngles = new Vector3(-rotationY, transform.localEulerAngles.y, 0);
}
}
void Start ()
{
// Make the rigid body not change rotation
if (rigidbody)
rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
}
}
SECOND SCRIPT IS
private var motor : CharacterMotor;
function Awake () {
motor = GetComponent(CharacterMotor);
}
function Update () {
var directionVector = new Vector3(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal"), 0, 0);
if (directionVector != Vector3.zero)
{
var directionLength = directionVector.magnitude;
directionVector = directionVector / directionLength;
directionLength = Mathf.Min(1, directionLength);
directionLength = directionLength * directionLength;
directionVector = directionVector * directionLength;
}
motor.inputMoveDirection = transform.rotation * directionVector;
motor.inputJump = Input.GetButton("Jump");
}

Make player move forward,right,left and backwards based on camera angle

So far I have a player who moved forward left right and backwards, however how I have it set up it's forward as in forward on the grid, not forward where my player is looking. I have the camera set as FPS, with it following the player around. Now I want to have the player be able to look with my MouseLook script (works already) but based on that I want forward to be wherever the player is looking, not the primitive version I have. I'll post code below to let you know what I am talking about, ANY help is appreciated.
Player Script (movement)
void Update () {
if(Input.GetKey (moveU))
{
SetTransformZ((transform.position.z) + playerSpeed);
}
if(Input.GetKey (moveD))
{
SetTransformZ((transform.position.z) - playerSpeed);
}
if(Input.GetKey (moveL))
{
SetTransformX((transform.position.x) - playerSpeed);
}
if(Input.GetKey (moveR))
{
SetTransformX((transform.position.x) + playerSpeed);
}
else
{
rigidbody.angularVelocity = Vector3.zero;
}
}
void SetTransformX(float n)
{
transform.position = new Vector3(n, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
}
void SetTransformZ(float n)
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y, n);
}
MouseLook script (attached to Main Camera in Unity, this works witht he player so it goes whereever my mouse is looking, but the movement is off since my code to move is very primitive)
[AddComponentMenu("Camera-Control/Mouse Look")]
public class MouseLook : MonoBehaviour {
public enum RotationAxes {
MouseXAndY = 0,
MouseX = 1,
MouseY = 2 }
public RotationAxes axes = RotationAxes.MouseXAndY;
public float sensitivityX = 15F;
public float sensitivityY = 15F;
public float minimumX = -360F;
public float maximumX = 360F;
public float minimumY = -60F;
public float maximumY = 60F;
float rotationY = 0F;
void Update ()
{
if (axes == RotationAxes.MouseXAndY)
{
float rotationX = transform.localEulerAngles.y + Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivityX;
rotationY += Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivityY;
rotationY = Mathf.Clamp (rotationY, minimumY, maximumY);
transform.localEulerAngles = new Vector3(-rotationY, rotationX, 0);
}
else if (axes == RotationAxes.MouseX)
{
transform.Rotate(0, Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * sensitivityX, 0);
}
else
{
rotationY += Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * sensitivityY;
rotationY = Mathf.Clamp (rotationY, minimumY, maximumY);
transform.localEulerAngles = new Vector3(-rotationY, transform.localEulerAngles.y, 0);
}
}
void Start ()
{
//if(!networkView.isMine)
//enabled = false;
// Make the rigid body not change rotation
//if (rigidbody)
//rigidbody.freezeRotation = true;
}

Okay, so you want your player to move forward, left, right, back relative to where they are looking, as I understand it.
First, make sure that transform.forward is the right direction for your player. in the editor you can select your player gameObject and see if the blue arrow faces the same direction as your player. If not, check out this thread on the unity answers forum to see how to change it.
Here are some functions to put into your player controller script to move relative to player rotation rather than position.
(Note: check out Time.deltaTime)
private void moveForward(float speed) {
transform.localPosition += transform.forward * speed * Time.deltaTime;
}
private void moveBack(float speed) {
transform.localPosition -= transform.forward * speed * Time.deltaTime;
}
private void moveRight(float speed) {
transform.localPosition += transform.right * speed * Time.deltaTime;
}
private void moveLeft(float speed) {
transform.localPosition -= transform.right * speed * Time.deltaTime;
}
Note: transform.position vs transform.localPosition
