hello guys

i tried this many times but i did not get it to work

Lerp with angles

What i wanna do :

Make the object rotate smoothly like a plane rotation

More presisely...

Make it rotate with lerp 30 degrees at right when the mouse cursor is at the right

Make it rotate back to 0 if cursor is over object

Make it rotate with lerp 30 degrees at left when the mouse cursor is at the left

And..

Make it rotate like a plane from left or right

and vice versa ..

Your right in the sense lerp is not so good at rotation, as yann pointed out to me a while ago its not going to be easy using lerp.

He helped me get it working with my project.

So let me know exactly how you need the rotation working and i'll help you get started..

Provide a simple capx of your attempt please

Your answer: Emulate anglelerp.

Also your example is in 3D. It doesn't show/help to see what you're wanting to do.

Are you doing perspective or something ?

Bugs:

1-The spaceship don't follow the mouse

2-When the spaceship is fully rotated you can see it struggle
