Unity3D - object moving up and down continuously within a y-axis range
1
I have a target that moves up and down, but I'm not sure how to limit it's vertical movement to a certain y-axis range. Thanks for any advice. Code is as follows:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class TargetMovementVertical : MonoBehaviour
{
public int maxSpeed;
private Vector3 startPosition;
// Use this for initialization
void Start ()
{
maxSpeed = 3;
startPosition = transform.position;
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update ()
{
MoveVertical ();
}
void MoveVertical()
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, startPosition.y + Mathf.Sin(Time.time * maxSpeed), transform.position.z);
if(transform.position.y > 1.0f)
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
}
else if(transform.position.y < -1.0f)
{
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y, transform.position.z);
}
}
}

Your question may have two meanings:
1- If you want to limit y shifting to be within -1 to 1, use the following code:
(e.g. if your original y equals 5, the result will be within range (4,6)
transform.position = new Vector3(0, startPosition.y + Mathf.Sin(Time.time * maxSpeed), 0);
2- If you want to make y value always within -1 to 1, use the following code:
(your result y value will be within range (-1,1) regardless of original y value)
transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x, Mathf.Sin(Time.time * maxSpeed), transform.position.z);

Sorry, what I mean is I have an object in the scene already, and I'm trying to make it move up and down relative to where it already is. I tried both and it still doesn't work properly. It made it jump even more further up and down the y-axis.

I have just tested my old solution and found the problem, I think that we should not add old y value, I replaced it with startPosition.y. Please check my updated solution.
