How to move an object in Unity 3D

How to move an Object Backward and Forward in Unity 3D ! 

 First of all lets discuss some of the key words that are necessary to understand. 

Vector 3:
Its a representation of 3 vector points. You have listened the x ,y and z axis. So here vector 3 takes all the 3 values.
The points in the back and forward will be (0,0,-1), (0,0,1) respectively.

Time.deltatime: 
Function is used to make the game rate independent.
If you multiply the variable with time.delta time it means you are saying that i want to move the object 10 meter per second.
Basically you use delta time to update your movements.

Transform.translate: 
 Transform.translate is basically used for the movement of the object as it takes the 3 axis value to move the object.  It's related to the distance the object will move.


Now lets see some practical example to make a object working.

We take a cube for the example purpose. Then add script to it.


Now lets see the played situation. As my object is moving perfectly.

Vector Math - Unity

Vector Math  Addition:  As you that the vector addition is defined by the combined effect of two or more than two vectors. When the tail of one vector is added to the head of other vector addition is made. This can be defined by a parallelogram.Actually joining two vectors result into a new vector. Subtraction:  Vector subtraction is performed to get the direction and distance from one object to another. The addition and subtraction of vectors is similar as the subtraction of vector will have negative negative magnitude that means opposite in direction. As in subtraction head to tail rule is also used. Dot Product : The multiplication of two vectors will result in a scalar quantity. Where Theta is the angle is multiplication of the two vectors is 0 than its perpendicular. In unity we use Mathf.Cos. Which perform equal-ant function. Cross Product: The result is perpendicular to the two vectors. The "Left hand rule" can be used to remember th...

Input.Getaxis, OnMouseDown, GetComponent< > - Unity Scripts

In This Blog We Will Discuss Some more Keywords. Input.GetAxis : In this picture a chunk of code is placed. You will see that Input.GetAxis("Vertical") returns a value. The value is from 1 to -1. When there is no key pressed the value is zero. Actually it returns the value of virtual axis. If we use Debug.log then the console will show some value on clicking the right or left button that will be constantly changing.  Other thing is that Vertical is pointing towards the built in inputs. As you can see in the picture above that the vertical have some columns in it. Where the vertical have positive and negative button which give positive or negative float value on event pressed. Whereas if we don't want to use these inputs . We can write code instead of writing Vertical or horizontal in the brackets of input.getaxis. We can write it as Input.GetAxis(keycode.space); .  Here the space key is assigined and it will return some value. OnMouseDown() : OnMouse...

Transform.LocalEulerAngle, how to measure speed of rotational body- Unity 3D

You have to know the difference when you switch the languages !  When you start writing to code for your game you either start with the C# or java-script or any other available language. I would like to share a small difference between these two languages syntax when you  are required or like to deal with both languages. I like to code in C# but some how have to deal with java-script. Where is found some thing about a scripting API Transform.LocalEulerAngle. First lets see what these API do. Lets discuss some other Api too. Transform.LocalEulerAngle : When you have to rotate something you use this api it rotate an object around an axis.  When you write this in Javascript. Then transform.LocalEulerAngle.y= 10f. But you can n't write the same for C#. As it's a vector3 in C#. Whereas Vector3 is a struct, whereas Eulerangle will return a copy. By assigning the value 10 means that you are making a temporary change in the copy. That does not happen.  So in ...
