Camera clamp causes jitter when reaching max rotation.

Hey guys, I was able to clamp my camera rotation for a more realistic FPS effect, although when my player hits the max angle, they are pushed back.

Does anyone have any insight on how to keep the player facing up/down without an awkward push back?

Code (CSharp):

1.     private void RotateCamera()
2.     {
3.         Vector2 inputValues = new Vector2 (Input.GetAxisRaw("Mouse X"), Input.GetAxisRaw("Mouse Y"));
4.  
5.         inputValues = Vector2.Scale(inputValues, new Vector2(lookSensitivity * smoothing, lookSensitivity * smoothing));
6.  
7.         smoothedVelocity.x = Mathf.Lerp(smoothedVelocity.x, inputValues.x, 1f / smoothing);
8.  
9.         smoothedVelocity.y = Mathf.Lerp(smoothedVelocity.y, inputValues.y, 1f / smoothing);
10.  
11.         currentLookingPos += smoothedVelocity;
12.  
13.         transform.localRotation = Quaternion.AngleAxis(-currentLookingPos.y, Vector3.right);
14.  
15.         player.transform.localRotation = Quaternion.AngleAxis(currentLookingPos.x, player.transform.up);
16.      
17.         currentLookingAt.y = Mathf.Clamp(currentLookingAt.y, -80f, 80f);
18.     }

 

Why are you clamping currentLookingAt after you set the rotation of the player? Should you not clamp this before?

 

Not sure, I am new to coding. What could be done to improve that?

 

Here's an FPS mouse-to-look-around script, from a Brackeys tutorial lol:
You need to use quaternions to not jitter i guess

Code (CSharp):

1. public float MouseSensitivity = 500f;
2.  
3.     public Transform PlayerBody;
4.  
5.     float Xrotation = 0f;
6.  
7.     //Start is called before the first frame update
8.     void Start()
9.     {
10.         Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked;
11.     }
12.    
13.     // Update is called once per frame
14.     public void Update()
15.     {
16.         float MouseX = Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") * MouseSensitivity * Time.deltaTime;
17.         float MouseY = Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") * MouseSensitivity * Time.deltaTime;
18.  
19.         Xrotation -= MouseY;
20.         Xrotation = Mathf.Clamp(Xrotation, -90f, 90f);
21.  
22.         transform.localRotation = Quaternion.Euler(Xrotation, 0f, 0f);
23.  
24.         PlayerBody.Rotate(Vector3.up * MouseX);
25.     }
