Quaternion.Slerp/Lerp: Rotating player 180 degrees and inverting z axis

Hey,

In my project the 2d player object is turned by pressing a button. the player turns 180 degrees on y axis and inverted amount for zaxis.

The problem i have is i am trying to rotate the player 180 degrees on the y axis. but i need to invert the z axis while im rotating the player.

i have webplayer version of the problem im trying to figure out:
http://home.tamk.fi/~e4tkaner/Rotateproblem/Rotateproblem.html

As seen the bars with yellow prints in them the code rotates the gameobject 180 degrees but the z axis is not affected.
I have been trying to multiply the axis.z value by -1 so it would be inverted but it hasnt really worked for me.

The wanted rotation is the bars with blue lines, the wanted result would be that also the z axis would be rotated when button is pressed.

Code:

Code (CSharp):

1. public static Vector3 pAxis;
2.     private Quaternion right;
3.     private Quaternion left;
4.  
5. //   public Quaternion left_i;
6. //    private Quaternion left = Quaternion.Euler(0, 180, 0);
7.  
8.    
9.     public float z;
10.     public bool facingRight;
11.     public bool buttonPressed;
12.     public float time = 0.0f;
13.  
14.     void Start()
15.     {
16.         buttonPressed = false;
17.         facingRight = true;
18.     }
19.  
20.     void Update()
21.     {
22.      //   left_i = Quaternion.Inverse(transform.rotation);
23.         pAxis = transform.rotation.eulerAngles;
24.         pAxis.x = 0;
25.         SmoothFlip(time, facingRight);
26.  
27.         Debug.Log(pAxis.z.ToString());
28.  
29.         right = Quaternion.Euler(0, 0, pAxis.z);
30.         left = Quaternion.Euler(0, 180, pAxis.z);
31.      
32.  
33.         if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))
34.         {
35.             Debug.Log("Turn");
36.             buttonPressed = !buttonPressed;
37.             time = 0.0f;
38.             facingRight = !facingRight;          
39.             pAxis.z = pAxis.z * -1;
40.         }
41.  
42.     }
43.  
44.     void SmoothFlip(float time,bool facingRight)
45.     {      
46.         if (facingRight)
47.         {
48.             transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(transform.rotation, right, Time.deltaTime);
49.  
50.         }
51.         if (!facingRight)
52.         {
53.             transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(transform.rotation, left, Time.deltaTime);
54.         }
55.     }

 

You are only setting pAxis.z after you called SmoothFlip.

 

Yes i figured that out eventually. too bad it didnt work quite as i hoped. Fixed the problem by inverting localscale.
