Mathfs

Freya's expanded math functionality for Unity!

  • This is primarily a way for me to share the math functionality I write and use in my own personal projects
  • I will recklessly edit and adapt things without too much thought into backwards compatibility
  • Minimum Unity version is currently 2021.2 due to using newer C# version features. It may be possible to auto-downgrade through your IDE if necessary
  • Commits with version tags should be relatively stable. Other commits may not be

Installation instructions

There are several ways to install this library into your project:

  • Plain install
    • Clone or download this repository and put it somewhere in the Assets folder of your Unity project
  • Unity Package Manager (UPM):
    • Add either of the the following lines to Packages/manifest.json:
    • "com.acegikmo.mathfs": "https://github.com/FreyaHolmer/Mathfs#0.1.0", if you want to target a specific version (recommended)
    • "com.acegikmo.mathfs": "https://github.com/FreyaHolmer/Mathfs", if you want to pull the latest commit (potentially unstable)
    • More information about UPM and git here
  • OpenUPM
    • After installing openupm-cli, run the following command:
    • openupm add com.acegikmo.mathfs

After installation you will be able to access the library in scripts by including the namespace using Freya

Changes

Mathfs.cs does not fully match Unity's Mathf.cs, I've made a few changes:

  • All angles are in radians, no methods use degrees
  • Lerp and InverseLerp:
    • Unclamped by default
    • LerpClamped/InverseLerpClamped are now the special case functions/exceptions
    • Uses the more numerically stable evaluation
  • Smoothstep is removed in favor of the more explicit:
    • LerpSmooth (which is how it was implemented) and
    • InverseLerpSmooth (which is how it is implemented everywhere but Unity's Mathf.cs)
  • Min/Max functions with arbitrary inputs/array input will throw on empty instead of returning 0
