get lerp percentage complete?

Is there any way to get the lerp percentage complete from 0 to 1?

example,

set value to: lerp(current value, 200, 12*dt) can give you value but not lerp percentage.

so when value is at 100 the lerp would be 0.5 half way, how do i track it current percentage complete, bare in mind the start and end value might be anything.

Thank you.

0 to 1 is a percentage, however using like you are results in it never getting to 1, or 100%

You have to realise that current value is the only value that's changing.

In order for it to work as a percent you would have the start value, to the target value.

lerp(startvalue,targetvalue,0.1)

lerp(startvalue,targetvalue,0.5)

lerp(startvalue,targetvalue,1)

Thanks but i don't want to set value by a percentage i want to convert the current value back into its lerp percentage at its current stage.

Reading the manual again i think i need to use unlerp.

lerp(current value, 200, 12*dt)

unlerp(start value, 200, current value)

Yeah, no, but you could use unlerp as part of a timer.

C = lerp(A, B, 12*dt)

The 'lerp' is of no importance. See it as a range.

C is in the range (A to B), where B = 100 and A = 0%

Say A = 2 and B = 6. Then the range is 4.

Then 100% = 4

Normalised 1% = 4 / 100, or 1 step = 4 / 100

Say C = 2 ... how many normalised steps to make that 2 ? Well 2 / (4 / 100) = 50 ... To 100 that is 50 %

The lerpfactor goes from zero to 1.

So in .. 2 = (lerp,4,6,x) ... x = 0.5

Generalised.

lerpfactor in % for C between A and B = C / (B-A/100)

That also gives negatives. When A is bigger then B. Up to you how you wrap you mind about that.

For me that just means that the range has a negative growth.

Here's an example of lerping with set values.

Note I think the ease out is exaggerated due to basically lerping a lerp.
