Interpolate To

Computes the value “Result” after moving “Delta Seconds” forward in time at a given “Speed” from the “Current” value in the direction of a “Target” value. The interpolation provides an eased approach to the “Target”, with options to adjust the “Speed” and “Exponent” to tweak the curve. The formula is: result = current + (target - current) * (1 - clamp(0, speed * deltaSeconds, 1))^exp. For quaternions, the node performs a spherical linear interpolation (SLERP) with alpha = (1 - clamp(0, speed * deltaSeconds, 1))^exp Vectors and arrays are interpolated component-wise, and interpolation can be applied to decimal types.
