If you use Allow Camera Control, example:

Otherwise just set

containerTransform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler (0, f, 0);

where f is the value from the example above.

Just set Camera Rotation Speed X - 0.

Thanks, that worked without using the gyroscope or the compass.

But I wanted to use maybe the compass to rotate. How can I do it with the compass then?

Thanks, but the thing is i have a kind of a 3D showing map. I rotate the camera to fit a 3D perspective like shown in the image attached.

I can i use the gyro or the compass to rotate the camera and still maintain the 3D perspective?

Something like that (in the general case):

using UnityEngine;

public class RotateMapUsingGyro:MonoBehaviour
{
    private OnlineMaps map;
    private Transform containerTransform;

    private void Start()
    {
        Input.gyro.enabled = true;
        map = OnlineMaps.instance;

        // Wrap the map in a new GameObject to rotate around the center.
        GameObject container = new GameObject("Map Container");
        containerTransform = container.transform;
        containerTransform.position = map.transform.position + new Vector3(map.tilesetSize.x / -2, 0, map.tilesetSize.y / 2);
        map.transform.parent = containerTransform;
    }

    private void Update()
    {
        Vector3 rate = Input.gyro.rotationRate;
        containerTransform.Rotate(rate);
    }
}

Hi again

I've tried to follow your instructions, but im not able to make it... i think i'm confusing all.

Please can you make an example how to rotate map via gyro without user control? whith the camera fixed...

Thanks you

The current rotation implementation can be found in OnlineMapsControlBase3D.UpdateCameraPosition.

Can you make a example how to do it with the device gyroscope?

Hello.

Yes, of course it's possible.
If you are using Camera Control - OFF, you can control the camera as you want.

I'm trying to rotate the map with compass, without user control ON (Camera control), and rotate it around the user GPS location.

The examples only work with Camera control ON...

Is it possible?

Best regards
