Cinematic style look at

[dmitricob]

Hello. I need to make an ability to look at some GO.
e.g.
Player presses a button, and around him smth happening and I need to rotate the player's camera to look at it smoothly.
What is the best way to do so?

Have you looked at the Cinemachine integration?

Cinemachine - Opsive

The Cinemachine ViewType allows the camera to be controlled by Unity’s Cinemachine. Cinemachine version 2.8 or later is required and the com.unity.cinemachine Assembly Definition Reference . . .

If you are using third person, you can also use the look at view type:

Third Person Look At - Opsive

The Third Person Look At view type will orient the camera so it is looking at the target. If no target is specified the camera . . .

I'd rather do without plugins, just to rotate cam

Look At only for IK, but I don't use it

Transform Look veiw type. I use it for vehicle weapons.

So, I make Ability that switch default ViewType to Transform Look and set to it target GO and make lerp look at.

Yes, set the TransformLook view type target object, then switch to it. The lerp speed can also just be adjusted by the MoveSpeed variable in the TransformLook view type.
