❔ making objects rotate at a fixed speed (unity script)

im trying to create 2 objects one being the center and the other one rotating around it in a 3D world

and i want to be able to change the speed when wanted

What have you tried already?

elmishOP•4/27/23, 12:10 PM

nothing

elmishOP•4/27/23, 12:11 PM

every google result is different

So what kind of rotation do you want? Should it just rotate around the center on one axis or should the object be able to change it?

elmishOP•4/27/23, 12:12 PM

one axis around the center

elmishOP•4/27/23, 12:13 PM

Y axis i think

kocha•4/27/23, 12:14 PM

position an empty gameobject in the center, make the rotating object its child and rotate the emptygameobject.

you can chose the otation speed yourself but you need to multiply it by time.deltatime

i thought of that and did all of it already but how do i rotate it

isnt transform.rotate instnat?

elmishOP•4/27/23, 12:18 PM

instant?

kocha•4/27/23, 12:19 PM

what do you mean by instant?

elmishOP•4/27/23, 12:19 PM

it instantly moves the object

kocha•4/27/23, 12:19 PM

you need to call it in the update function

kocha•4/27/23, 12:19 PM

and rotate by a small amount

elmishOP•4/27/23, 12:26 PM

it spins!

i may or may not have made a particle accelerator
