Reducing magnitude by x amount
This may be an easy one.
I've got a Vector, and i wish this Vector to be identical in angle, but 5 units shorter. Basically I;m looking to reduce the Magnitude by 5 units.
I've git working code, but I'm worried about using Normalize, and slowing things down unnecessary. Is there a better way of doing this?
attackVector = attackVector.normalized * (5 - attackVector.magnitude);
As always, thanks, you lot rock.

Nope, .normalized is the best way to do what you're doing. There isn't really anything faster that'll give the same result.
Sorry for the four year wait on this reply, I type very slowly.
