Menu Buttons Not Moving Much Further and Unsmooth

Hi! my menu buttons are not moving much further and are not smooth(I mean the buttons go directly to the distance not actually moving). Can you help me?

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class CarSelect : MonoBehaviour {
5.     void OnMouseEnter() {
6.         transform.Translate(Vector3.right);
7.     }
8.     void OnMouseExit() {
9.         transform.Translate (Vector3.left);
10.     }
11. }
12.  

 

you should multiply with Time.deltaTime. and preferably also some speed factor variable for control.

 

What about the distance?

 

what is it that you want the buttons to do?

 

When i hover on the mouse, the buttons will go to the position with movement speed.

 

which position? Vector3.right is not "really" a position... is the same as Vector3(1, 0, 0);

 

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class CarSelect : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     void OnMouseEnter() {
7.         transform.Translate(4,0,0);
8.     }
9.     void OnMouseExit() {
10.         transform.Translate (-4,0,0);
11.     }
12. }
13.  

I will never make a menu with sliding buttons horizontally on the mouse.

 

just use an other function then translate if the have to stop. what you are missing now is the same as my previous answer.
just use movetowards.

 

Oh for pete's sake. Look it up:

The moving buttons while on the mouse are in 0:11.

 

...? so whats the problem? are you waiting for me to write it for you?
all you need is right here in the reference??
if you can't convert what's written there to what you need, you shouldn't be coding imo...

as for transform.Translate you need one of the axis in your vector3 to increment otherwise there is no translation...

 

What axis?

I did it:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class SelectMouseEnter : MonoBehaviour
5. {
6.     public Transform target;
7.     public float speed;
8.  
9.     void OnMouseEnter() {
10.         float step = speed * Time.deltaTime;
11.         transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, target.position, step);
12.     }
13. }

But the button still not moving in speed.

 

did you set your speed to other then 0? does your button have a collider?
with translate in your case the x axis.

 

1. I did
2. It doesn't.

 

if it doesn't have a collider the Mouse functions won't work... these are in short raycasts so they need collider to detect.
