easings.net VS cs-tween

Easings: When working with animations and transitions, Easings provides a comprehensive cheat sheet for various easing functions, allowing developers to visualize and choose the perfect timing curve for their projects.

Something like this: https://easings.net/#easeOutExpo

Very timely and helpful, thank you!

A suggestion: the pulse animation would look much better with ease-in / ease-out animation curves instead of the harsh linear curve it's currently using. EaseInOutSine from this cheat sheet would do fine: https://easings.net/

One I like to reference is this easing functions cheatsheet. Its aimed at programming animations, but a lot of the principles apply to your needs.

I feel like BB should definitely have easings (specifically the ones on easings.net) for keyframes. Any thoughts?

> I wasn’t sure what type of math function would work for this

Usually people use "easing functions", which are convenient since they typically have a range and image both in [0.0 .. 1.0] [1] (although sometimes the range is slightly above 1 or below 0 to produce some "effect"). CSS has a cubic-bezier function [2] that can be used to replicate pretty closely all sorts of easing functions.

Functions that look like an "S" when plotted are called "sigmoids", a popular one used in graphics applications is called "Smoothstep" [3].

Get them from Robert Penner's easing site instead. Or, even better, use the normalized ones from flux.lua since they're easier to work with and understand. You can pass them to any lerp function to blend vectors and colours too. You can use this generator to create versions for your language of choice or use these C# versions.

You can make something slide onscreen and scale up; and then half a second later scale down. Coroutines make it easy to write code to do those things in sequence. Find UI animation that's written as code instead of in the Unity Inspector easier to understand and debug.

A "custom tween engine" isn't that big an ordeal, but making something with all the features of dotween certainly would be.
