How do I like rotate an object from another object?

[merry mantle]

So I have my Camera "Camera" and my Object/Transform named "Pivot". I parented the Camera to the Pivot and when I rotate the pivot, it rotates the Camera from the camera position?
How could I fix this issue?I also am doing this using code but I will just show you a video in the editor.
(also is this the right channel to post this?)

make sure to change the tool mode from center to pivot to see accurate positions

[merry mantle]

would it work if I used a script too?

If I do this Pivot.transform == ...

would that be the right way to do it?

Chris

Are you there?

What

Why is it so weird in pivot mode

[dusty parcel]

a script would care about the actual position of the transform, ie what pivot lets you see

[merry mantle]

Ok Chris thanks for that tip, but how would I rotate the camera with the pivot

so it kind of moves in a sphere pattern

[dusty parcel]

just to make sure we're on the same page - you want the camera to orbit around that Pivot, correct?

[merry mantle]

like 3rd person?

Yes that's what I need.The Camera orbiting around the Pivot

[dusty parcel]

what about if you set the "global" handle thing to "local"? (i don't remember exactly what that does tbh)

[merry mantle]

It is to change the rotation axis

But no

It is kind of the same as this video #1454544047849869495 message

I will search orbit tutorials

Thanks Chris

[dusty parcel]

well, something's.. not right with your scene view, and i'm not sure what

i can orbit and rotate separately as you'd expect

[merry mantle]

WHAT, I think I broke my game

[dusty parcel]

your camerapivot also seems to have synced position and rotation, which definitely doesn't make sense. perhaps reset the transform of the camerapivot and the camera, and then try again (moving the camera away from the pivot and rotating the pivot)

[merry mantle]

I cant move the camera

its like stuck there

it wont move

even when I pull it with move tool

Has cinemachine anything to do with that?

[dusty parcel]

mm, maybe? i'm not familiar with cinemachine at all

well, try removing the cinemachine stuff (perhaps duplicate this scene and try it in the copy) and see if you can move stuff then

also restarting the editor might be in order, just to rule out any random transient issue

[merry mantle]

Yes its because of that

Cinemachine messed up the camera

Thanks

NOW THIS POST IS SOLVED
