MoveTowards(Vector4, Vector4, float)

Moves a point 
current
towards 
target
.
public static Vector4 MoveTowards(Vector4 current, Vector4 target, float maxDistanceDelta)

Parameters

current

Vector4
The current point.

target

Vector4
The target point.

maxDistanceDelta

float
The maximum distance to allow. Use a negative value to push the vector away from the 
target
.

Returns

Type

Description

Vector4The new position, moved from 
current
towards 
target
by at most 
maxDistanceDelta
.

Remarks

This is essentially the same as Vector4.Lerp but instead the method ensures that the distance moved never exceeds 
maxDistanceDelta
. Negative values of 
maxDistanceDelta
pushes the vector away from 
target
.

The current point.

target

Vector4
The target point.

maxDistanceDelta
