Inside the editor, we can add keyframes wherever we like and mess with the shape of the curve by selecting one of the keyframe control points and moving the handles that appear either side of it. We’re not restricted to the types of curve provided by Unity. In code, you must set the preWrapMode or postWrapMode variable values for the AnimationCurve to the desired WrapMode.ĪnimCurve. You can modify the WrapMode behaviour for both endpoints individually in-editor by selecting the small cog dropdown icon that appears next to each endpoint keyframe and selecting the appropriate option. WrapMode.Default is code-only and seems to break the behaviour of AnimationCurve and Evaluate, so I would recommend against using it in this context.

WrapMode.PingPong also copies the curve infinitely past its bounds, but it mirrors the curve shape on the time axis every other instance.WrapMode.Loop copies the curve infinitely, so calling Evaluate with a timestamp just past the end of the curve returns the value of the curve just at its start.

WrapMode.Once also seems to be the same thing as Clamp in this context, and is also unavailable in-editor.

WrapMode.ClampForever is the same thing as the above, but is unavailable in-editor.

Calling Evaluate at a timestamp outside of the curve returns the value at the endpoint keyframe

WrapMode.Clamp is the default behaviour.

Some options have strange behaviour because these modes – called WrapModes – are also used for animation clips, so I’d suggest sticking to Clamp, Loop and PingPong. What happens if you Evaluate at times outside the endpoint keyframes? There are several possible types of behaviour, although the options available to you differ depending on whether you modify via code or in-editor. On a curve where the first keyframe is placed at 0.0 seconds and the final keyframe is at 5.0 seconds, the start and end times are 0.0 and 5.0 respectively, although the start time, confusingly, can be after 0.0 seconds. Here, the Evaluate function takes in a time parameter corresponding to the timestep you wish to retrieve the value for. Private Text scoreText private IEnumerator ChangeValue ( float startVal, float endVal, float speed ) We saw the use of coroutines alongside Lerp in the previous Unity Tips article – let’s look at an example in which we change a UI element displaying score over time.

It’s useful to use Lerp to control the change of a value over time in Update or in a coroutine. The important take-away is that the first two parameters to a Lerp function are values we are interpolating between and the third is always a float between 0 and 1. See the Unity documentation for more information. Lerping between two materials – ideally two that use the same shaders and textures – returns a new material where all numbers and vectors are interpolated accordingly. We’ll discuss quaternions in a later section, leaving only materials. On the colour gradient above, the left and right edges represent col1 and col2 respectively and the black dot marks 75% of the way between the two where the output colour lies.
