Constrain object's Z axis rotation? How?

Unity Engine
1

Hello, How would I go about constraining an object’s Z axis rotation? As I want it to stay upwards.

Just check the box in the rigid body constraints.

Yes. But the objects inside another object(its a child).

24 hour bump

Don’t really understand what the issue is exactly?

So, you have 2 objects:

Parent
-Child

You want to constrain the Z-rotation of the object “Child” no matter what the parent does?

Rigidbody might do it, but I would just make a script and directly attach it to the “Child” object:

private var originalZ : float

function Awake()
{
originalZ = transform.eulerAngles.z
}

function Update()
{
transform.eulerAngles.z = originalZ
}

Somewhat messy solution (should NOT be used with a physics/rigidbody simulation). Prolly a better one out there

Yes. And your script dos not work. :frowning:

One week bump.

You need to be more specific - there are a million ways a script can “not” work - the interesting part is in how it doesn’t work. :slight_smile:

My object does not stay constrained on the Z axis. It still rotates when the car flips.
