Getting the Position of an attachpoint in script

[shadex]

I am currently working on a script to spawn a particle effect at a location. This is a state machine behavior, like MeleeAttackControl. I want to spawn the effect at an attachment point in the hand called "MagicHands". right now it's spawning at animator.rootPosition, How can i access the equip point in the hand? Below is the script

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngineInternal;

public class MagicAttackBehavior : StateMachineBehaviour {

// collision effect
[Tooltip("Particle Effect")]
public GameObject particle;
[Tooltip("Particle Effect")]
public float TimeToDestroyParticleEffect;
[Tooltip("Start particle effect at")]
public float startParticleEffect = 0.05f;
[Tooltip("End Particle Effect at")]
public float endParticleEffect = 0.9f;
private bool isActive;

[Tooltip("Use explosions physics")]
public bool UseMPhysics;
public float radius;
public float power;




protected GameObject clone;

override public void OnStateEnter(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{

}

override public void OnStateExit(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{

}

override public void OnStateUpdate(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{
if (stateInfo.normalizedTime % 1 >= startParticleEffect && stateInfo.normalizedTime % 1 <= endParticleEffect && !isActive)
{
[font color="ff00e2"]clone = Instantiate(particle, animator.rootPosition, Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;[/font]
isActive = true;
UnityEngine.Object.Destroy (clone, TimeToDestroyParticleEffect);
Debug.Log ("-- Particle Effect Destroyed -- ");

if (UseMPhysics == true) {
Vector3 explosionPos = animator.rootPosition;
Collider[] colliders = Physics.OverlapSphere (explosionPos, radius);
foreach (Collider hit in colliders) {
Rigidbody rb = hit.GetComponent<Rigidbody> ();
if (rb != null)
rb.AddExplosionForce (power, explosionPos, radius, 3.0F);
Debug.Log ("-- YES Physics -- ");
}

}
else if (UseMPhysics != true) {
Debug.Log ("-- No Physics -- ");
}

}
// Activeate this after startParticleEffect
else if (stateInfo.normalizedTime % 1 > endParticleEffect && isActive)
{

Debug.Log("-- else if statement active -- ");
isActive = false;
}


}

override public void OnStateMove(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{
//Debug.Log("On Attack Move ");
}

override public void OnStateIK(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{
//Debug.Log("On Attack IK ");
}
}
Any help would be appreciated.

Why not take a look at the magic projectile that's already in here? We can use it right?

vMagic Power is no longer in 2.0, it use to be in 1.3, so i do not have the script anymore. I was attempting to create a state machine behavior script like vMeleeAttackControl so the entire magic attack can be setup through a single script on an animation state. The vMagic Power and johns projectile scripts are based on making the spell a weapon (IE you have to equip it like an axe or sword). I wanted something that acted independently of a weapon due to spells like heal, any Point Blank Area of Effect, or enchant weapon. Unless i am completely missing something, you would have to unequip the weapon, equip the spell, cast it, re equip the weapon since you can't have multiple weapons equipped in the same spot.

Right now i am trying to figure out use Animator.GetBoneTransform .

Hey man sorry I am not near a pc now, but YouTube for magic attack Invector. It's here somewhere in the forums, working for 2.0. Chronic man used it for his generic ai. I read the forums enough to figure it out lol but you're right. You have to equip. I'll figure this out soon

Ideally i just want to institiate and object and parent it to the hands. I can do this with a particle effect but it doesnt work with a trail. I'll pm you what i got in a few.
