RotateAround an object with using Quaternion

Hi everyone,

I have a great question for code masters. Think about you have only a calculated rotation value to rotate the transform. But you have to rotate around with its child pivot position. How do you solve this problem?

Thank you for your time

 

Generally you subtract the offset, do the rotation, then add the offset back in.

Thank you for your quick reply but I'm not good at reading math formulas. That's why I couldn't understand most of the post you shared. I need a solution in C#

But, I think I understand what you mean. I'll give it a try, Thanks.

 

Me neither. Steps to success:

1. subtract the offset amount (vector)
2. do the rotation by the quaternion
3. add the offset amount back (vector)

You can do it!

 

Thank you, I can do it You're amazing, really

 

Hello everyone,

Thanks to Kurt-Dekker suggestion, I wrote the code.
Here is the solution.
