    Hi all, we have just released our latest asset pack, which in short provides 3 stylised compasses with compass needle pointing functionality. It's really simple to set up as it uses one script and a 'North' reference transform. You can use it as either a North pointing compass or a waypoint market pointing compass. Your pick!



    You can read more about the functionality further down.

    Included in the pack are 3 compass designs (Military, Pirate and Orienteering styles) images below:




    The Compass Needle Script
    The way we implemented this is super straightforward. You drop the compass pointer script on the needle you want to point at a North transform and you tell it which transform is North and which compass it is parented to. After that, it's just a matter of tweaking how quickly you want it to orient to face the North point and how long it takes to settle with dampening (simulates how compasses are all wobbly).


    So, there it is! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to let me know below and check out the web demo link above to see all the compasses in action. I'll be uploading a tutorial video for set up and a promo video in the next few weeks.
