I had been struggling with this for about 40 minutes, then after finally deciding on going to search it up, I watch some tutorials for about 30 minutes but they don’t help me then I find this! A 2 minute video, with extremely simple code that does what I want! Thank you so much man, this is a great video!

I was three seconds away from a mental breakdown and you saved me! I have to code a VR experiment in Unity and clearly underestimated my abilities, but luckily there are guys like you out there to help me out!

I love these little snippets. I can casually watch them on break at work, or when I am in the line at a bank. It's really filling in my knowledge gaps. Thanks!

[GlitchVR]

No messing. Straight to the point. THANK YOU!

[vongocanh]

Thank you, I just finished the project, this knowledge I have not learned, but thanks to this tip, I also understand a bit, Thank you

As a fairly experienced coder, it's nice to see I haven't forgotten the basics. Sadly it does mean my problem is far more infuriating. I'll keep checking, it's gotta be here somewhere.

Sir thank you for that ez tutorial, i just started 3 days ago with Unity on the Academy there and was searching for exactly that script so i could rotate the objects they want me to use in the academy games to make them more fun! Thank you so much now it is way more fun to work on the projects make projectiles rotate and so on! you have my like and my Sub!

Can you do a video on more complex rotation operations and working with quaternion?

[durvids]

You're knocking it out of the park with these tutorials. Short and to the point. Great stuff, thank yoU!!

[hocineache]

i am mad because i can't upvote this more than once, Thank you

I was looking for a way to rotate doors and fell into the deep abyss of euler angles and quaterions, but the tutorials never mentioned rotate method (which i believe also uses euler)

[LaurenArmiland-ywvh]

This is so helpful, thank you. I have applied it to my sprite in a Flappy Bird type game to make it slowly rotate during play. What I'm struggling to do now, is reset the z position to 0 on game over / at start. I've looked around, read many forums, watched many videos and tried many scripts but it's not working for me. Do you have any guidance on this? Thank you.

This guy is amazing!! Clear and straight to the point. We needed a guy like him for some news Unity tutorial. Sub from me, GG!

[hasankarakoc]

You are really amazing. You are really doing a good job! Please keep it!

[kututube]

hi uh i was wondering how would you make it rotate without having to press a button (basically its stuck on a loop). nice job on the video tho

[AnnaGlin]

how would you go about rotating the object by dragging the mouse (or touch if it's on mobile)?

[bandanaglitchy]

Is there any way to make the object instantly snap to the rotation?

[shaikhabdulbasit]

Hey Tarodev, what if I wanted to start and end slowly, rather than instantly, just like a fan starting on or turning off. How can I do that?
And btw how did you get your scene looking the way it is looking.😃
