spring arm functionality

[gary]

Does UNIGINE has something similar to UE4's spring arm functionality?

This is just a camera attached to something with kind of logic?

Shouldnt be that hard to reproduce.

But, yes, sometimes some 'ready-mades' would come in handy. ;) (like for none programmers like me)

There is no built-in object like this in UNIGINE. I guess (as Werner already mentioned) it should be possible to implement by coding the custom player behavior.

Here's a way I managed a spring arm in C#.

[ShowInEditor]
Node camera, springStart, springEnd;

private void Update()
{
    var from = springStart.WorldPosition;
    var to = springEnd.WorldPosition;
    WorldIntersection raycast = new WorldIntersection();
    World.GetIntersection(from, to, 1, raycast);
    if(raycast.Surface < 0){
        camera.Position = springEnd.Position;
    }
    else{
        camera.WorldPosition = raycast.Point;
    }
}
