Connection system like polybridge or turmoil
Currently I have a script that istantiates and stretches a game object between two mouseclicks, how can I ensure the player can spawn another one only from the loose ends of the first one? To make it simple, a system that works like oil pumps in turmoil or bridges in polybridge. The project I have in mind is not grid based but in case I can easily switch. Thank you guys in advance.
You might want to try using 2 gameObjects, one for joints (represented by a circle) and one for the bridge in between joints (represented by a line). When the player clicks on a joint then clicks elsewhere another joint is spawned and and then a bridge is spawned in between the two units. This way the player can only create bridges from other joints. You would probably connect all of the objects with a fixed joint. I haven't personally used this, but it looks like its what you want. I think it might look like this:
Player clicks on joint1
Player clicks somewhere else on screen and creates joint2 there.
You instantiate a gameobject between the two joint objects
You add a fixed joint component going from joint1 to bridge
You add a fixed joint component going from bridge to joint2
I haven't tried this myself but I think that. You would add the component with AddComponent and then edit the component's variables to set the joints.
