public static float MoveTowards(float current, float target, float maxDelta)

The maximum change applied to the current value.

Returns

Type

Description

float

Remarks

This function is similar Mathf.Lerp except that this function ensures the rate of change never exceeds 
maxDelta
and that the current value is never greater than the 
target
value. Negative values of 
maxDelta
pushes the value away from 
target
.

Examples

using UnityEngine;public class Example : MonoBehaviour{    float currStrength;    float maxStrength;    float recoveryRate;    void Update()    {        currStrength = Mathf.MoveTowards(currStrength, maxStrength, recoveryRate * Time.deltaTime);    }}
