Mathf.Clamp issues

Questions & Answers

Hi there, so i have a script for camera movement/control and it was giving me issues related to a clamp it was going beyond the boundaries and returning to the position instead of just clamp, so i decided to do a new script more simple, and it’s doing the same.

Previous problem: The other script which is more advanced and better done have those problems too.

Problem: If you use this script in a camera and move fast the mouse to down or up it will go beyond the clamp and then return to the clamp.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
 
public class MouseLook2 : MonoBehaviour{

	Vector2 mouseDelta;
	Vector3 absolutePosition;
	Vector3 finalRotation;
	Vector3 smoothedPosition;


	public Vector2 yLimit = new Vector2(-75,150);
	public Vector2 sensitivity = new Vector2(2, 2);
	public GameObject characterBody;

	public void LateUpdate(){

	mouseDelta = new Vector2 (Input.GetAxisRaw ("Mouse X"), Input.GetAxisRaw ("Mouse Y"));
		

		//Add inverted mouse delta value of Y (If we want inverted view just delete the negative sign)
		absolutePosition.x = -mouseDelta.y;
		//Add Mouse delta value of X
		absolutePosition.y = mouseDelta.x;

		finalRotation = absolutePosition;
		finalRotation = new Vector3(Mathf.Clamp(finalRotation.x,-yLimit.y,-yLimit.x),0,0);
		transform.localEulerAngles += finalRotation;

	}


}

Thanks in advanced.

Thanks @NoseKills @KayelGee. I had to go to work. Glad you were able to see it through.

The problem was this line because it added a clamped value to an unrestricted variable.

transform.localEulerAngles += finalRotation;

It was fixed by being changed to the following line.

transform.localEulerAngles = new Vector3(Mathf.Clamp(transform.localEulerAngles.x,-yLimit.y,-yLimit.x),0,0);

I’ve never done one of these past-tense. It feels weird.
