Planets orbiting a star

[misterjuly]

Hello,

I have planets that need to move in a circular orbit around an object, but I don't know how to do this. I think it has something to do with the Trig functions, but I'm too dumb to understand it (barely passed Trig in college), so if you could explain in great detail that would be awesome. Thanks!

Use the new spline system of Unity.
GameObject -> Spline -> Draw Splines Tool
Then you add the Spline Animate script to the planet.
It's very easy to use

Hi,

 A simple approach is to attach each planet to a dummy transform that represent and is the center of the rotation, then you simply animate that dummy.

Bye,
