Question by xCeas · Dec 13, 2013 at 10:01 PM · controllershootarrow

Shoot arrow

Hello I try to make my player shoot arrows with my own character controller and the arrow is being instantiated in the right place but not moving afterwards here is the code

 void Start()
     {
         Screen.lockCursor = true;
         speed = 8;
     }
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update()
     {
         if(timer >= 1.5f || timer == 0)
         {
             timer = 0;
             airTime = 0;
             DrawArrow();
         }
         else
         {
             if(shot)
                 timer += Time.deltaTime;
         }
     }
     void FixedUpdate () {
 
         Debug.Log(timer + " " + shot);
         moveDirection = (arrowPrefab.transform.rotation * Vector3.forward);
         Debug.Log(moveDirection * speed);
         moveDirection *= speed;
         if(!arrowPrefab.GetComponent<CharacterController>().isGrounded){
         arrowPrefab.GetComponent<CharacterController>().Move(moveDirection * speed);
         arrowPrefab.transform.Rotate(0, Time.deltaTime * speed, 0);}
     }
     private void DrawArrow()
     {
         if(Input.GetButton("Fire1"))// starts drawing
         {
             shot = true;
             Debug.Log("FIRE AT WILL");
             Vector3 pos = new Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y + 2, transform.position.z + 2);
             Instantiate(arrowPrefab, pos, transform.rotation);
             arrowPrefab.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(30, 0, 0);
         }
     }

ty very much

I have a few suggestions. The component that fires and arrow shouldn't be the same component that controls the flight/path of the arrow.

You are referring to "arrowPrefab" in a few places, and it doesn't make sense. If you make an instance of arrowPrefab with Instantiate, that returns a reference to a NEW arrow. So that new arrow should have the flight/path component on it.

You should do some tutorials. http://www.youtube.com/user/infiniteammoinc
