[Solved] Adding force to bullet shell.

[Legion]

We've modified the "vShooterWeapon" script to spawn bullet shells as prefabs instead of legacy particles, the prefab has collider, rigidbody and the following simple script, which is supposed to add a boost to the bullet shell:


using System.Collections;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using UnityEngine;



public class AddForce : MonoBehaviour {



public float X;

public float Y;

public float Z;

public Rigidbody ShellRB;



void Awake()

{

ShellRB = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();

}



void Start()

{

ShellRB.AddRelativeForce(X, Y, Z, ForceMode.Impulse);

}



void OnCollisionEnter(Collision collision)

{

this.enabled = false;

}

}
The prefab, on its own, works perfectly, but once instanced, the force does not apply and the bullet shells fall down, as can be seen in the video:



Any suggestions? There are people here with more idea than us

Out of interest, are you using custom animations for that character?

[Invector]

If the prefab is working fine on it's own then it's probably the shell collider hiting the player's collider, just make sure they don't collide using different layer.

We tried to put the shells in the "Ignore Raycast" layer, but they passed through the ground, the problem was the floor of the demo, we suppose the mesh collider of this, with a different floor works well in that layer.

Yeah, from this publisher.

Btw, if someone want to spawn gameobjects instead of particles, these are the changes that we have done to "vShooterWeapon.cs":



Add this after Effect's header:




[Header("Shell")]

public Transform[] SpawnPoint;

public GameObject[] ShellPrefab;

public GameObject[] ShellClone;And this at the end of StartEmitters() reference:



if (SpawnPoint != null)

{

ShellClone[0] = Instantiate(ShellPrefab[0], SpawnPoint[0].position, SpawnPoint[0].rotation) as GameObject;

}
