Method Summary

void	setSmoothness(float smoothness) Should set the smoothness value that determines the rate of transition towards a target.
void	tick() Should advance the time used by the smoother to move towards its target.

Method Detail

tick

void tick()

Should advance the time used by the smoother to move towards its target.

setSmoothness

void setSmoothness(float smoothness)

Should set the smoothness value that determines the rate of transition towards a target.

Parameters:

smoothness - The smoothness of the transition towards a target. It is scaled between 0 and 1. A value of 0 has abrupt changes, 1 is very smooth. A value of 0.9 gives nice workable smoothness for typical animations.
