Stupid Unity scripts : "Smooth Follow" from Standard Assets
// Smooth Follow from Standard Assets
// Converted to C# because I fucking hate UnityScript and it's inexistant C# interoperability
// If you have C# code and you want to edit SmoothFollow's vars ingame, use this instead.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class SmoothFollow : MonoBehaviour {
// The target we are following
public Transform target;
// The distance in the x-z plane to the target
public float distance = 10.0f;
// the height we want the camera to be above the target
public float height = 5.0f;
// How much we
public float heightDamping = 2.0f;
public float rotationDamping = 3.0f;
// Place the script in the Camera-Control group in the component menu
[AddComponentMenu("Camera-Control/Smooth Follow")]
void LateUpdate () {
// Early out if we don't have a target
if (!target) return;
// Calculate the current rotation angles
float wantedRotationAngle = target.eulerAngles.y;
float wantedHeight = target.position.y + height;
float currentRotationAngle = transform.eulerAngles.y;

// Damp the rotation around the y-axis
currentRotationAngle = Mathf.LerpAngle(currentRotationAngle, wantedRotationAngle, rotationDamping * Time.deltaTime);
// Damp the height

// Convert the angle into a rotation
var currentRotation = Quaternion.Euler(0, currentRotationAngle, 0);
// Set the position of the camera on the x-z plane to:
// distance meters behind the target
transform.position = target.position;
transform.position -= currentRotation * Vector3.forward * distance;
// Set the height of the camera
