Move GameObject back and forth

by

There are many ways to do this but Mathf.PingPong is the easiest and the simplest way to accomplish this. Use Mathf.PingPong to get number between 0 and 1 then pass that value to Vector3.Lerp. That’s it.

Mathf.PingPong will automatically return value will that will move back and forth between 0 and 1. Read the linked documentation for more info.

public float speed = 1.19f;
Vector3 pointA;
Vector3 pointB;

void Start()
{
    pointA = new Vector3(0, 0, 0);
    pointB = new Vector3(5, 0, 0);
}

void Update()
{
    //PingPong between 0 and 1
    float time = Mathf.PingPong(Time.time * speed, 1);
    transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(pointA, pointB, time);
}
