Im trying to build a weapon in a game using Unity. My bullets spawn but i cant seem to get the force to apply on instantiation to get them to actually fire.
My weapon script
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class Weapon : MonoBehaviour {
public Rigidbody2D projectile;
public float forceMultiplier;
public Vector2 direction;
public Transform firePoint;
private float timeBtwShots;
public float startTimeBtwShots;
public void Fire(float force, Vector2 direction)
{
Instantiate(projectile, firePoint.position, transform.rotation);
projectile.AddForce(direction * force);
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
if (timeBtwShots <= 0)
{
if (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Return))
{
Fire(forceMultiplier, direction);
timeBtwShots = startTimeBtwShots;
}
}
else
{
timeBtwShots -= Time.deltaTime;
}
}
}
You need to add the force to the spawned object and not the prefab.
Your code should be something like this:
public void Fire(float force, Vector2 direction)
{
Rigidbody2D proj = Instantiate(projectile, firePoint.position, transform.rotation);
proj.AddForce(direction * force);
}

I am new to Unity & on Stackoverflow. Need your help as I am stuck in this below mentioned situation.
When I spawn my projectile(Bullet), It should be instantiated at player's current position but It's not getting changed. The bullet is getting generated from Center only(Not from Player's position). Please advise. image is for reference

Your problem is likely in the script that translates your bullet.
As the code you shared does exactly what you want. Assuming we are in a front view.
I have verified this by using your script and a copy of the enemy script in place of a bullet that moves them in Vector3.Up direction.
Edit:
You are creating a new vector with the transforms x and 0,5f that gets added every frame.
You either set transform.position or use Translate but with a direction only.
Moves the transform in the direction and distance of translation.
transform.Translate(Vector3 translation)
The following line would work instead.
private void LateUpdate()
{
transform.Translate(Vector3.up * projectile_speed* Time.deltaTime);
}
I'm using this code:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
public class CollisionPlayer : MonoBehaviour
{
public bool alreadyDied = false;
public GameObject player;
public float timeDeath;
public ParticleSystem particles;
public GameObject explosionGO;
private SpriteRenderer sr;
private BoxCollider2D bc;
private PlayerController walkScript;
void Start()
{
sr = GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();
bc = GetComponent<BoxCollider2D>();
walkScript = GetComponent<PlayerController>();
}
void OnCollisionEnter2D (Collision2D collide)
{
if (collide.gameObject.CompareTag("Dead"))
{
Instantiate(particles, player.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
Instantiate(explosionGO, player.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
CinemachineShake.Instance.ShakeCamera(30f, .1f);
alreadyDied = true;
}
}
void Update()
{
if(alreadyDied == true)
{
timeDeath -= Time.deltaTime;
sr.enabled = false;
bc.enabled = false;
walkScript.enabled = false;
}
if(timeDeath <= 0)
{
SceneManager.LoadScene(SceneManager.GetActiveScene().buildIndex);
}
}
}
This is the bullet's code:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class LeftBulletScript : MonoBehaviour
{
// Start is called before the first frame update
public float speed;
public float destructionLeftTime;
public ParticleSystem particles;
private GameObject thisGameObject;
void Start()
{
thisGameObject = this.gameObject;
Destroy(gameObject, destructionLeftTime);
}
void Update()
{
transform.Translate(Vector2.left * speed * Time.deltaTime);
if(destructionLeftTime > 0.05f)
{
destructionLeftTime -= Time.deltaTime;
}
else
{
Instantiate(particles, thisGameObject.transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
}
}
}
This code should spawn some particles and a sound effect when the player gets hit by something with tag "Dead". But that does not happen. I have a box collider 2D on both the bullet (that should kill me) and the player. My Rigidbody2D is dynamic on the player with z freezed. The bullet does not have a rigidbody. I made sure that the bullet actually has the tag "Dead", spelled the exact same way as the way I wrote on the script. The weirdest thing is that I used this code on another game and nothing changed (just the name of a script). Both the player and the bullet are on the same layer. Anyone could tell me what could have happened?
Hello i want to create a group of the same prefab following the player in my game. I already got the prefab intantiation to follow the player but when there is more than one they just follow the exact same path on top of each other. is there a way where they can follow the player but act like a bunch of bees moving?
Thanks!
This is the script on my prefab:
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class KillerMovement : MonoBehaviour {
public GameObject player;
void FixedUpdate()
{
Vector2 toTarget = player.transform.position - transform.position;
float speed = 0.5f;
transform.Translate(toTarget * speed * Time.deltaTime);
}
}
The best solution depends on you game logic, but you may consider having a delay before starting following (you can tweak the delay depending on the position you want to the particular object to assume in the trail.
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;
public class Follower : MonoBehaviour
{
public GameObject player;
public float delay = 0f;
public float speed = .5f;
bool isReady = false;
void Start()
{
StartFollowing();
}
public void StartFollowing()
{
StartCoroutine(WaitThenFollow(delay));
}
IEnumerator WaitThenFollow(float delay)
{
yield return new WaitForSeconds(delay);
isReady = true;
Debug.Log(gameObject.name);
Debug.Log(Time.time);
}
void FixedUpdate()
{
if (isReady && player != null)
{
Vector2 toTarget = player.transform.position - transform.position;
transform.Translate(toTarget * speed * Time.deltaTime);
}
}
}
I've called StartFollowing in the Start method for you to test the code. You should call this method whenever approrpiate in your game logic.
I'm creating a rocket league like game.
My problem is the ball.
I wrote a scipt who sets up the ball position and rigidbody based on syncvars which the server sets each 0.01 second.
This works well.
The hosting player can touch the ball and it does move on the client aswell.
My code works.
But the problem appears when I'm trying to touch the ball with a client.
The player object glitches into the ball and physics doesn't really work.
The ball gets moved sometimes but it's stil weird movement.
I guess the problem is that the ball doesn't really get the rigidbody changes from the client.
This is my code
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine.Networking;
public class Ball_Behaviour : NetworkBehaviour {
[SyncVar]
public Vector3 syncedballpos;
public Vector3 ballpos;
[SyncVar]
public Quaternion syncedballrot;
public Quaternion ballrot;
public AudioClip boom;
[SyncVar]
public Vector3 syncedballrigvel;
public Vector3 rigvel;
[SyncVar]
public Quaternion syncedballrigrot;
public Quaternion rigrot;
public GameObject ball;
public Rigidbody rig;
public AudioSource aud;
public GameObject pat;
public float offset;
// Use this for initialization
override
public float GetNetworkSendInterval()
{
return 0.015f;
}
void Start () {
aud = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
GetNetworkSendInterval();
ball = this.gameObject;
rig = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
offset = 1;
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update ()
{
if (isServer)
{
setball();
}
if (Vector3.Distance(rigvel, syncedballrigvel) > offset)
{
rig.velocity=Vector3.Lerp(rigvel, syncedballrigvel, 1f)*Time.deltaTime*0.05f;
}
else
{
if (Vector3.Distance(ballpos, syncedballpos) > offset)
{
this.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(ballpos, syncedballpos, 1f) * Time.deltaTime * 0.05f;
}
/* if (Quaternion.Angle(rigrot,syncedballrigrot)>1f)
{
rig.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(rigrot,syncedballrigrot,0.7f);
}
if (Quaternion.Angle(ballrot, syncedballrot) > 1f)
{
this.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(ballrot, syncedballrot, 0.7f);
}
*/
}
}
[ServerCallback]
void setball()
{
syncedballrigvel = rig.velocity;
syncedballrigrot = rig.rotation;
syncedballpos = this.transform.position;
syncedballrot = this.transform.rotation;
// RpcDoOnClient(syncedballpos);
}
void OnCollisionEnter(Collision col)
{
aud.Play();
}
public void scored()
{
this.GetComponent<MeshRenderer>().enabled = false;
Instantiate(pat, this.transform.position, this.transform.rotation);
aud.PlayOneShot(boom,2);
}
}
I am trying to make my enemy object turn and start moving towards my player object when the player comes within a certain vicinity.
For the turning I have been testing the transform.LookAt() function although it isn't returning the desired results as when the player is too close to the enemy object the enemy starts to tilt backwards and I only want my enemy to be able to rotate along the y axis, thanks in advance.
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class EnemyController : MonoBehaviour {
public Transform visionPoint;
private PlayerController player;
public Transform Player;
public float visionAngle = 30f;
public float visionDistance = 10f;
public float moveSpeed = 2f;
public float chaseDistance = 3f;
private Vector3? lastKnownPlayerPosition;
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
player = GameObject.FindObjectOfType<PlayerController> ();
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
// Not giving the desired results
transform.LookAt(Player);
}
void FixedUpdate () {
}
void Look () {
Vector3 deltaToPlayer = player.transform.position - visionPoint.position;
Vector3 directionToPlayer = deltaToPlayer.normalized;
float dot = Vector3.Dot (transform.forward, directionToPlayer);
if (dot < 0) {
return;
}
float distanceToPlayer = directionToPlayer.magnitude;
if (distanceToPlayer > visionDistance)
{
return;
}
float angle = Vector3.Angle (transform.forward, directionToPlayer);
if(angle > visionAngle)
{
return;
}
RaycastHit hit;
if(Physics.Raycast(transform.position, directionToPlayer, out hit, visionDistance))
{
if (hit.collider.gameObject == player.gameObject)
{
lastKnownPlayerPosition = player.transform.position;
}
}
}
}
change the look at target:
void Update () {
Vector3 lookAt = Player.position;
lookAt.y = transform.position.y;
transform.LookAt(lookAt);
}
this way the look at target will be on the same height as your object.

public class EnemyMovement : MonoBehaviour

public float MoveSpeed = 4;
int MaxDist = 10;
int MinDist = 5;
void Update()
{
transform.LookAt(Player);
if (Vector3.Distance(transform.position, Player.position) >= MinDist)
{
transform.position += transform.forward * MoveSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
if (Vector3.Distance(transform.position, Player.position) <= MaxDist)
{
// Put what do you want to happen here
}
}
}
}
