my GameObject keebs rotating if i told him to move to another GameObject

[Ziad]

sorry for that kind of stupid questions… but i get a headache every time i try to fix this problem… the problem is … i made a GameObject and i told him to move to the target that the player have choosed… but when it moves to the target it keeps rotating crazy, this is the script that i used

using UnityEngine;

using System.Collections;

public class PickedLocust : MonoBehaviour
{

public static PickedLocust Instance;

public CharacterController characterController;

public float time;

public Transform Player;
public Transform startPos;
public Transform target;

private int moveSpeed = 15;

Vector3 moveVector { get; set; }

void Awake()
{
    Instance = this;
    characterController = GetComponent("CharacterController") as CharacterController;

}

public void Update()
{
    characterController.Move(moveVector * Time.deltaTime * moveSpeed);

    if (Leader.Instance.target != null)
    {

        target = Leader.Instance.target;
    }

    if (target)
    {
        transform.LookAt(target);

        moveVector = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward);

    }
    else if (!target)
    {
        moveVector = new Vector3(0, 0, 0);
        target = startPos;

    }

}

void OnTriggerStay(Collider OtherObjects)
{
    Food FoodScript = OtherObjects.GetComponent("Food") as Food;
    float health = FoodScript.Health; ;
    FoodScript.Health--;
}

}

You don’t describe how fast, or how tight the loops are so its hard to guess what’s going on. Your code doesn’t look wrong, There are a few things I would check:

• Make sure Leader.Instance.target doesn’t change when you don’t expect it to.
• If it only spins when you get to the object, then you want to have a conditional clamping so you don’t face it when your within ~.5units.

Besides that I’m not to sure what’s wrong. The only other thing I would try is to move the character independent of their forward vector, and move the character at the end of the function.

void Update () {
      //rotate towards target

      var moveDirection = Vector3.zero;
      moveDirection = target.position - transform.position;
      moveDirection = moveDirection.normalized;
      moveDirection *= moveSpeed
      var controller = GetComponent<CharacterController>();
      controller.Move(moveDirection * Time.deltaTime);
}

This might not work, but its a quick change and its worth a shot.
