Add 2D Follow Script

[hasanbayatme]

Follow Utility.

We should be able to attach it to any object that we want follows another object.

This follow script can have these settings:

• offset (Vector3): The position offset for the follower.
• followType (Enum): MoveTowards, Lerp, SmoothDamp and Acceleration Enum, Also each follow type has it's own settings.

public enum FollowType {
  MoveTowards,
  Lerp,
  Slerp,
  SmoothDamp,
  Acceleration
}

• speed (You can use it where you need it): The speed of the follower.
• time (You can use it where you need it for Lerp, MoveTowards, ...): The time for movement, Also you can use it as smooth time for SmoothDamp.
• bounds (Bounds, BoxCollider2D, Vector2, ...): Can be anything, a width and height or a box collider 2d or an bounds class, also there should be an option to disable it.

EDIT: Acceleration movement http://answers.unity3d.com/answers/29757/view.html

Any more suggestions are welcome. 😄

Sounds like a fun thing to check, I'll give it a try today.

Added a sample on last commit, I'm not sure what you mean by acceleration follow, will add if explained.

[hasanbayatme]

Acceleration follow means the object increases speed over time. Gradually moving an object.

Here is a nice resource: http://answers.unity3d.com/answers/29757/view.html

Resource Added to issue.

Thanks.

The script was added in commit 6f5c171
It's called Follow2D
Just missing the acceleration follow.

[hasanbayatme]

I know.

But we are waiting for acceleration follow to be added, then we close this issue.

Thanks.

Added the acceleration follow in 711f635
