We'll use the position property of the focus instead of localPosition so we can correctly focus on child objects inside a hierarchy. The camera's position is found by moving it away from the focus position in the opposite direction that it's looking by an amount equal to the configured distance. We'll do this in LateUpdate in case anything moves the focus in Update.

Transform focus = default float distance = 5f Focus and distance.Įvery update we have to adjust the camera's position so it stays at the desired distance. Also add an option for the orbit distance, set to five units by default. This could really be anything, so add a configurable Transform field for the focus. To keep the camera focused on the sphere we need to tell it what to focus on. Our simple approach is much easier to understand and tweak. Also, the Cinemachine option requires a lot of tuning to get right and might still not behave as you prefer. However, by creating a simple orbit camera ourselves we'll better understand what goes into creating one and what its limitations are. Is there a second-person view?Ĭinemachine provides a ready-made free-look camera that can orbit our sphere, so we could just use that. Other approaches exists as well, like switching between multiple cameras depending on the avatar's position. The typical ways to make this possible is by either using a first-person view or having the camera follow the player's avatar in third-person view mode. But usually characters in games can roam about large areas. Following the SphereĪ fixed point of view only works when the sphere is constrained to an area that is completely visible. This tutorial is made with Unity 2019.2.18f1. This time we focus on the camera, creating an orbiting point of view from which we control the sphere.

This is the fourth installment of a tutorial series about controlling the movement of a character.

Note that this mod is not compatible with OptiFine. Pressing any key related to the camera utils mod in combination with RIGHT ALT will open a settings GUI which allows you to change properties or to reset them back to their default values. This option is located in the accessibility settings. It smoothens the players camera movement to potentially avoid motion sickness.


This mod allows for two custom third person perspectives. These are bound to F6 and F7 by default. These can be modified by pressing RIGHT ALT and F6 or F7 respectively.īy pressing RIGHT ALT and the cinematic camera button, you can adjust the properties of the cinematic camera.

When holding the third person distance modifier in third person, you are able to scroll out up to 100 blocks away from the player.
