Animate a GameObject along a spline
Move a GameObject along a spline.
Use the Spline Animate component to define the movement of cameras, characters, or other GameObjects in the Editor.
You must have a GameObject with a Spline component attached to it in your scene to select as the target spline for the Spline Animate component.
By default, the Spline Animate component uses the Time method to animate a GameObject with set to complete after 1 second. To change what animation method your GameObject uses and how it moves along its target spline, refer to Configure the movement of a GameObject.
To animate a GameObject along a spline:
- Add the Spline Animate component to a GameObject that you want to animate along a spline.
- In the Spline Animate component, for the Spline property, select a GameObject that has an attached Spline component that you want to animate on.
- To view the animation in the Scene view, select Play in the Spline Animate component's Preview panel.
