2d rotate to unity code example
Example 1: rotation unity script 2d
transform.Rotate(Vector3(0, 0, 50));
//instead of :
transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3 (0, 0, 50);
//or like you said
transform.eulerAngles = Vector3.forward * 50;
Example 2: 2d rotation unity
// Rotation scripting with Euler angles correctly.
// Store the Euler angle in a class variable, and only use it to
// apply it as a Euler angle, but never rely on reading the Euler back.
float x;
void Update ()
{
x += Time.deltaTime * 10;
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(x,0,0);
}
