How do I set a child object to not rotate if the parent WILL be rotating?

Questions & Answers

I just want a camera object to move around and not rotate using c# code.

This object is a camera and it’s a child of a car object. The car rotates but I don’t want the camera to rotate. I want it to be fixed but following the car from a top down perspective. The camera follows the car no problem, It just rotates when I rotate the car.

I want to keep the camera as a child object because in my game I instantiate up to 4 players and each player car will have a child camera instantiated with them.

The game is a top down racing game.

Here is an image of how it looks:

You have to use code for that - either to negate the rotation of the parent on the child camera or to have the camera follow the player.

If you want to keep it as a child adding this script may help:

#FixRotation.cs

 Quaternion rotation;

 void Awake()
 {
      rotation = transform.rotation;
 }

 void LateUpdate()
 {
       transform.rotation = rotation;
 }
