Episode 1.19 Headbob Movement

Got a problem with my gunscript, I'm following Eteeski Tutorials on Youtube, I'm on episode 1.19 Headbob Movement,
and when I follow the step of fixing the code to avoid the gun glitch (26:10 on video), when I change "function Update()" to "function LastUpdate()" in the gunscript, the gun just float on the air without moving or following the player at all.

Any help will be truly appreciated.

here's my codes:

Gunscript.js

Code (csharp):

I believe there might be a typo.. Try LateUpdate instead of LastUpdate. LateUpdate would be a standard unity function that ran after any Update functions, I have no idea what LastUpdate is.

eteeski · Jun 19, 2012

yep, I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as LastUpdate. The thing about that step is that I'm pretty sure the game works identically using both LateUpdate and Update. I might have been wrong in the tutorial.

That's it!
it was LateUpdate instead of LastUpdate, I don't know what I was trying to do. Now the glitch is corrected.
At least in my version of the game, the glitch only shows with "function Update()"

Thank you very much guys!
