turret rotate issue

Unity Engine
1

I’ve written code blocks for turrets and a target on a sphere.
See the attached files for a sample picture.
My goal is that Turret_1 and Turret_2 aim at the target continuously. Turret_1 and Turret_2 rotate only on the y-axis. The target spins around the sphere. I couldn’t solve the problem in my script. Turret_2 does not move at all. Turret_1 is aiming at the target but if the target is moving towards turret_1, it is not aiming at the target.

public class Target : MonoBehaviour {

    public float targetSpeed;
   
    void Update () {
        transform.RotateAround(Vector3.zero, transform.right, targetSpeed * Time.deltaTime);
    }
}

public class Turret : MonoBehaviour {

    public Transform target;
    public float rotateSpeed;

    private Rigidbody rb;
    private Vector3 direction;
    private float rotateAmount;

    void Start () {
        rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }
   
    void Update () {
        TurretDirection();
    }

    void TurretDirection()
    {
        direction = target.position - transform.position;
        direction.Normalize();
        rotateAmount = Vector3.Cross(direction, transform.forward).y;
        rb.angularVelocity = -rotateSpeed * rotateAmount * transform.up;
    }
}

This may not be right, but it doesn’t look like you are updating the target. Have you tried putting
transform.LookAt(target); in the Update?

so the code is completely wrong.

Didn’t say it was wrong. Maybe this would help you more Unity Turret Tutorial - Learn Content & Certification - Unity Discussions
