rotation from editor different from script ?

I'm having a problem,

basically i notice that the values i see in the editor are not the same as the one in the script.

myobject.transform.rotation.x is different from what i see in the editor.

Why is that ? and how to get the correct values ? ( even if i force the rotation of my object by script i don't get the same position for my object ! )

pin.transform.rotation.x = 0 lays it flat on the ground by script. but rotation.x = 0 stands up in the editor.
I'm so confused :s

the bottom text in the screenshot is Debug.log ( quille.transform.rotation.x + " - " pin.transform.rotation.y )

as you can see, the editor rotations are different.

helppppp !

It doesn't say the rotation of the object in the editor, but it says it's euler angles, I think. It would be something like:

Code (csharp):

1. myobject.transform.localEulerAngles.x

 

Right. The euler angles are in the editor.
rotation is a Quaternion. If you aren't familiar, you can look them up in the script docs. Basically, the x,y,z component of the Quaternion are totally different than the euler angles most people are used to in 3D editors. There is never a simple direct correlation between the two either.

 

One other thing to consider, for those that end up here from search results as I did, is that the Unity editor seems to rotate on the center point of the renderer.

I was struggling with a similar problem and this worked:

Code (CSharp):

1. if (gameObject.TryGetComponent(out Renderer renderer))
2. {
3.     gameObject.transform.RotateAround(renderer.bounds.center, Vector3.forward, 45f);
4. }
