Question by LeftyTwoGuns · Jun 26, 2017 at 04:43 AM · instantiatecoroutineprojectileienumeratoryield waitforseconds

IEnumerator not looping correctly?

I have a pretty basic burst fire function for a gun- as in shooting three times in a row. Here is the script:

 void Update ()
     {
         timer += Time.deltaTime;
 
         if (Input.GetButton("Fire1") && timer >= fireRate && Time.timeScale != 0)
            {
                if (burstFire)
                   {
                     StartCoroutine(BurstShot());
                   }
             }
     }
 
  IEnumerator BurstShot()
     {

        for(int i = 0; i < burstSize; i++)

         {
             timer = 0f;

             Quaternion bulletRot = Quaternion.Euler(90, 0, 0);

             GameObject newBullet = Instantiate(bulletObj, transform.position, transform.rotation * bulletRot) as GameObject;

             newBullet.GetComponent<Rigidbody>().velocity = bulletSpeed * transform.forward;

             currentAmmo--;

             yield return new WaitForSeconds(burstRate);
         }
        
     }


The problem is, while the first projectile will shoot forward correctly, the next two projectiles will launch upwards in a near perfect arc. And for the life of me I can't figure out why. Why is everything in the coroutine repeating correctly except for the apparent rotation of the last two shots?

Do The last two shots go in the same direction? I'm not sure what you mean by "upwards in a near perfect arc."

The last two shots are projected in the correct direction, just at a different angle it seems. The last two shots seem to be instantiated at a difference of about 50 degrees on the X axis from the first shot, which causes them to project up into the air ins$$anonymous$$d of directly forward

Perhaps your bullets are colliding with each other when you instantiate them, thus screwing up their rotation?

I had thought this at first but the projectiles are set to ignore collision with themselves in the Project Settings Physics matrix. Also this same code works with my shotgun method, where it instantiates a specific number of projectiles to fire at once
