Enemy Projectile is not flying in the right direction (needs to fly toward Player)
I am having trouble getting the enemy's projectile to fly from the enemy to the player's position. When I play the game, the enemy bullet projectiles fly off in one direction on the screen and not toward the player. I think the issue might be in how I am assigning direction to the projectile prefab? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class EnemyController : MonoBehaviour
{
public float speed;
public Rigidbody enemyRb;
[SerializeField] float rateOfFire;
private GameObject player;
public GameObject projectilePrefab;
float nextFireAllowed;
public bool canFire;
Transform enemyMuzzle;
void Awake()
{
enemyRb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
player = GameObject.Find("Player");
enemyMuzzle = transform.Find("EnemyMuzzle");
}
void Update()
{
//move enemy rigidbody toward player
Vector3 lookDirection = (player.transform.position - transform.position).normalized;
enemyRb.AddForce(lookDirection * speed);
//overallSpeed
Vector3 horizontalVelocity = enemyRb.velocity;
horizontalVelocity = new Vector3(enemyRb.velocity.x, 0, enemyRb.velocity.z);
// turns enemy to look at player
transform.LookAt(player.transform);
//launches projectile toward player
projectilePrefab.transform.Translate(lookDirection * speed * Time.deltaTime);
Instantiate(projectilePrefab, transform.position, projectilePrefab.transform.rotation);
}
public virtual void Fire()
{
canFire = false;
if (Time.time < nextFireAllowed)
return;
nextFireAllowed = Time.time + rateOfFire;
//instantiate the projectile;
Instantiate(projectilePrefab, enemyMuzzle.position, enemyMuzzle.rotation);
canFire = true;
}
}

replace line in 39
Instantiate(projectilePrefab, transform.position, projectilePrefab.transform.rotation);
with
Instantiate(projectilePrefab, transform.position, transform.rotation);
