why discrepancy between full vector x component and its individual x component?

Unity Engine

Why does the x value read different here?

Vector3 bb = new Vector3(-0.032f, -0.3f, 1.5f);

UnityEngine.Debug.Log("bb field: " + bb.x);

UnityEngine.Debug.Log("bb full: " + bb);

Since you haven’t actually said what you even think is different between the two, I’m assuming you’re hitting this.

How is it different?

When you call:

UnityEngine.Debug.Log("bb full: " + bb);

bb in this instance is really a call to bb.ToString()

bb.ToString() formats the floats in a manner different than the default float formatting.

So, the value is not different, it’s being formatted for display differently.
