I want to create a simple follow camera script. Currently I have this script
public class PlayerFollowCamera : MonoBehaviour
{
private const float FOLLOW_SMOOTHING = 10;
[SerializeField]
private Transform player;
private Vector3 offset;
private void Awake()
{
offset = player.position - transform.position;
}
private void FixedUpdate()
{
Vector3 followPosition = player.position + offset;
Vector3 smoothedPosition = Vector3.Lerp(transform.position, followPosition, Time.deltaTime * FOLLOW_SMOOTHING);
transform.position = smoothedPosition;
transform.LookAt(player);
}
}
In the editor the player position is at 0, 10, 0. The camera position is at 0, 10, -15. Everything works fine if the offset would result in 0, 0, -15. The problem is that the calculation breaks because the result for the z axis results in +15 because it calculates
Is my code wrong? How can I setup a smooth follow script?
