Help for muzzle flash script
Hi, i'm not good at scripting so i was thinking about if anyone could write a script too me so i can have two muzzle flashes with (one) gun, because my model have dual wielded pistols so i need two muzzle flashes.
I have seen that people have used particles and prefabs to make some muzzle flashes on this (forum) but I haven't got them to work.
Thanks in advance :)
This isn't where you come to ask someone to write scripts for you. If you're having specific questions about the examples you're trying, by all means ask away.
I do agree with the statement of CrhisD but thought I'd try to give you a push in the right direction. Basically you create a Particle System and set the emitter options to your liking, preferably add some random velocity so it never looks the same and set it to One Shot and Autodestruct. Make a prefab out of it and then via script instantiate:
var muzzleFlash : ParticleEmitter; //Your emitter prefab
var gunEnd : Transform; //An empty gameobject positioned at the end of the gun as a child
var gunEnd2 : Transform; //Same as above but the other one
//Call OnShooting() from somewhere in your firing script
function OnShooting () {
Instantiate(muzzleFlash, gunEnd.position, gunEnd.rotation);
yield WaitForSeconds (0.2);
Instantiate(muzzleFlash, gunEnd2.position, gunEnd2.rotation);
}
Just a very basic example. Perhaps a switch and a more precise timer in between shots later on would be a good idea. Inside the function you can call for sounds, light and so forth. Hopefully this can get you started though.
