Bullet mouse control
I basically fire a cannon ball ( sphere ) with some forward speed and some torque to the ball so it makes a nice effect. But I would also like to controll this ball with the mouse while it is in the "air". For example when i drag left the bullet goes slightly to the left, and if drag up then it goes slightly up. How can i achieve this? Thank you in advance
void OnMouseDrag()
{
float velocity = 3.0f;
Vector3 newPos = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y, 1));
newPos.z = transform.position.z;
print("Distance: " + (transform.position - newPos));
transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(transform.position, newPos, velocity * Time.deltaTime);
}
This is a simple script I created to drag an object using the mouse. It's not the best, but its a starting point. If you want it to be slower, make velocity bigger.
Thank you for your answer @chiker, but i've done differently like this:
float x = Input.GetAxis("Mouse X");
float y = Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y");
rb.AddForce(Vector3.right * x * 50f);
rb.AddForce(Vector3.up * y * 50f);
where rb is the rigidbody component of the cannonball. This was done on the FixedUpdate too.
