Restrict camera rotation in x and y?

How would I restrict the cameras rotation in x and y in this script?

private void Update()
	{
		//Check if the left mouse button is held.
		if(Input.GetMouseButton(0))
		{
			//Get the current mouse input.
			yaw += Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * mouseSensitivity;
			pitch -= Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * mouseSensitivity;
		}

		//Get the current scroll input.
		scroll -= Input.GetAxis("Mouse ScrollWheel") * scrollSensitivity;
		scroll = Mathf.Clamp(scroll, minDistance, maxDistance);

		//Update the rotation.
		currentRotation = Vector3.SmoothDamp (currentRotation, new Vector3(pitch, yaw), ref rotationVelocity, 0.07f);
		transform.eulerAngles = currentRotation;

		//Update the position.
		currentDistance = Mathf.SmoothDamp(currentDistance, scroll, ref distanceVelocity, 0.1f);
		transform.position = targetTransform.position + transform.forward * -currentDistance;
	}

thanks in advance :slight_smile:

That’s how I made it (from memory and kinda pseudocode):

if (camera.rotation.eulerAngles.y > maxY) {
   camera.rotation.eulerAngles.y = maxY;
}
if (camera.rotation.eulerAngles.y < minY) {
 camera.rotation.eulerAngles.y = minY;
}
