Quaternion.operator *

Parameters

Description

Take the rotation state of lhs and apply a rotation of rhs.

Rotating by the product lhs * rhs is the same as applying the two rotations in sequence: lhs first and then rhs, relative to the reference frame resulting from lhs rotation. Note that this means rotations are not commutative, so lhs * rhs does not give the same rotation as rhs * lhs.

#pragma strict
public var extraRotation: Transform;
// Applies the rotation of extraRotation to the current rotation.
transform.rotation *= extraRotation.rotation;

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
    public Transform extraRotation;
    // Applies the rotation of extraRotation to the current rotation.
    void Example() {
        transform.rotation *= extraRotation.rotation;
    }
}

Parameters

Description

Rotates the point point with rotation.

#pragma strict
// Moves the object along relativeDirection
// Usually you would use transform.Translate for this
public var relativeDirection: Vector3 = Vector3.forward;
function Update() {
	var absoluteDirection: Vector3 = transform.rotation * relativeDirection;
	transform.position += absoluteDirection * Time.deltaTime;
}

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

// Moves the object along relativeDirection
// Usually you would use transform.Translate for this
public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour {
    public Vector3 relativeDirection = Vector3.forward;
    void Update() {
        Vector3 absoluteDirection = transform.rotation * relativeDirection;
        transform.position += absoluteDirection * Time.deltaTime;
    }
