Resolved After asigning a transform to look at a raycast hit point makes it woble even tho the inspector says

Hello! So I have made a script, that shoots a ray cast from the player's camera and then rotates the assigned transform to look at it. But after looking for a few seconds, the game object starts to wobble.

Here is the issue:

And here is the script

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class Raycaster : MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.  
8.     public float damage = 10f;
9.     public float range = 100f;
10.     public float fireRate = 15f;
11.     public float impactForce = 30f;
12.  
13.     public Camera fpscamera;
14.     public Transform WhatLooks;
15.     public Transform WhatLooks2;
16.  
17.     private float nextTimeToFire = 0f;
18.  
19.    
20.     void Update()
21.     {
22.  
23.      
24.  
25.             Shoot();
26.        
27.  
28.     }
29.  
30.     void Shoot()
31.     {
32.  
33.  
34.         RaycastHit hit;
35.         if (Physics.Raycast(fpscamera.transform.position, fpscamera.transform.forward, out hit, range))
36.         {
37.             UnityEngine.Debug.Log(hit.point );
38.             WhatLooks.transform.LookAt(hit.point);
39.             WhatLooks2.transform.LookAt(hit.point);
40.         }
41.  
42.     }
43. }
44.  

 

Have you tried doing it in the LateUpdate instead of Update

 

First, figure out if it's a raycasting problem or a rotation problem. Put this after the raycast line:

Code (csharp):

1. Debug.DrawLine(fpscamera.transform.position, hit.point);

And watch where it draws the line to in the scene view. Does the line also jitter? Or is it smooth? If the line jitters, then try to find a pattern in how it jitters - maybe it's hitting an unexpected invisible collider somewhere, for example.

If the line is smooth, then the problem is with rotating them somehow - either they're rotating wrong in the first place, or something else is affecting them after you rotate them. Try putting this after your LookAt's:

Code (csharp):

1. Debug.DrawLine(WhatLooks.transform.position, WhatLooks.transform.forward);

Now does this line point in the direction you expect even after the objects start to jitter? If so, then something else is trying to rotate the guns - look around for physics or other scripts.

 

Thank you both @StarManta and @SpookyCat for answering, I tried debugging it as @StarManta said, and apparently, it was the problem of the raycast, but then I tried using the LateUpdate function like @SpookyCat and now it does not jitter. My problem is now fixed. Thank you!
