Here's a Unity 6-compatible C# example that:

• Displays a UI button labeled "Get Rotation Vector".
• When clicked:
  • Generates a random rotation vector.
  • Rotates an object along that direction.

🎮 Steps:

• Create a 3D object in your scene (e.g., a Cube).

• Attach the script below to a new empty GameObject (e.g., "RotationManager").

• Assign the 3D object in the inspector to the public field.

1. Add a UI Button, and hook up its OnClick() to call GetRotationVector().

✅ RotationController.cs

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;

public class RotationController : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject objectToRotate; // Assign in inspector
public Text vectorDisplayText;    // Optional: Assign a UI Text to display the vector

private Vector3 currentRotationVector;

void Start()
{
currentRotationVector = Vector3.zero;
}

public void GetRotationVector()
{
// Generate a random unit vector
currentRotationVector = Random.onUnitSphere;

// Optionally show it in UI
if (vectorDisplayText != null)
vectorDisplayText.text = $"Rotation Vector: {currentRotationVector.ToString("F2")}";

// Start rotating along the new vector
StopAllCoroutines();
StartCoroutine(RotateAlongVector(currentRotationVector));
}

System.Collections.IEnumerator RotateAlongVector(Vector3 direction)
{
float rotationSpeed = 90f; // degrees per second

while (true)
{
objectToRotate.transform.Rotate(direction, rotationSpeed * Time.deltaTime, Space.World);
yield return null;
}
}
}

🧩 Unity UI Setup

1. Create a UI → Canvas and add:
   • Button → set its OnClick() to call RotationController.GetRotationVector()
   • (Optional) Text → assign to vectorDisplayText to show the vector
2. Create a Cube or any 3D object, and assign it to objectToRotate.

Let me know if you want it to rotate for a fixed time instead of continuously, or support other features like rotation speed sliders!

🌀 Unity 6: Rotate a 3D Object Along a Random Vector and Reset After a Timer Using UI

Rotating objects dynamically in Unity is a powerful way to add interactivity and visual appeal to your game or simulation. In this guide, you’ll learn how to build a simple UI-based system where a button click triggers a 3D object to rotate along a randomly generated vector — and automatically return to its original orientation after a few seconds.

✅ What You’ll Build

• A UI button labeled "Get Rotation Vector"

• A 3D object (like a cube) that rotates along a randomly generated vector when the button is clicked

• A timer mechanism that smoothly returns the object to its original rotation after a fixed period

🧱 Step-by-Step Guide

1. 🎮 Setup Your Unity Scene

1. Open Unity 6 and create a new 3D project.

2. In the Hierarchy:

   • Right-click → 3D Object → Cube → name it RotatingObject

   • Right-click → UI → Canvas

     • Inside Canvas, create a Button

     • Create a Text (UI) element if you want to show the vector.

3. Right-click in Hierarchy → Create Empty → name it RotationManager

2. 🧠 Attach This Script to RotationManager

Create a C# script called RotationController.cs and attach it to the RotationManager GameObject.

3. 🧩 UI Button Setup

1. Select your Button in the Canvas.

2. In the OnClick() list:

   • Drag the RotationManager GameObject into the slot.

   • Select RotationController → GetRotationVector().

4. 🔗 Hook Up References in Inspector

• Drag the Cube (or whatever 3D object) into Object To Rotate.

• If you’re using a UI Text, assign it to Vector Display Text.

🎨 Bonus: UI Design Tips

• Use TextMeshPro for cleaner UI fonts.

• Add a rotation indicator arrow for visual direction feedback.

• You could replace Random.onUnitSphere with user-defined axes or sliders for more control.

✅ Result

Now, when you run the game and click the "Get Rotation Vector" button:

1. A random rotation vector is generated.

2. The cube rotates in that direction for 3 seconds.

3. It then smoothly interpolates back to its original rotation.
