About

Too tired of creating a simple rotating animation for a single gameobject?
Realizing that you need to create the same rotating animation for another gameobject?
Me too, that is why I created this simple to use Auto Rotate Control script.

Functions

version 0.0.1

• Instant rotation of GameObjects.
• Add as many objects that you want to rotate together.
• Assign keys to rotate and reset the rotation.
• Adjust the speed of the rotation.

Getting Started

• Open Unity and add a Cube to the scene.
• Create an empty GameObject and rename it to AutoRotateControl.
• Attach the AutoRotateControl.cs script to the AutoRotateControl.
• Add the Cube or as many GameObjects that you want to rotate together in the same script by adding them to the Object To Rotate list.
• If you want to rotate the object/objects on key press, simply check the Key Press Enable and select the keys you wish to use.
• Adjust the speed by moving the Slider.
• Add Notes on top to keep track of the objects that you AutoRotate.
• Press Play in your editor and all the objects you had assigned will now rotate according to your settings.

Example

Simply add the script to any GameObject and set the properties.
