Making shooting function with RayCast iPhone

Question

I have a Player script that shoots a bullet (rigidBody) to kill an enemy, and the same for enemy, who shoots that same bullet to kill Player. Unfortunately enemy bullets mess with my camera ( it's a 3rd person camera) when they get between camera and Player, so the camera is jerking for like one frame.I took some examples from forum to replace bullets with raycast, but with no results. Is thers some simple way to replace my current functions of instantiating bulletPrefab with raycast?

Here I have 4 scripts:

Player script for Shooting:

#pragma strict #pragma implicit #pragma downcast

var groundSpeed : float; //Force applied when grounded var airSpeed : float; //Force applied when in air var jumpSpeed : float; //Force applied when jumping var touchHorizontalRotationSpeed : float; //Horizontal rotation speed of the player when using touch-joystick var mouseHorizontalRotationSpeed : float; //Horizontal rotation speed of the player when using the mouse var onGroundDrag : float; //Rigidbody drag used on ground var inAirDrag : float; //Rigidbody drag used in air var keyboardMouseEnabled : boolean; //Is keyboard and mouse used for moving and rotating the player, useful for Editor testing var movementJoystick : Joystick; //Joystick that controls the player movement var rotationJoystick : Joystick; //Joystick that controls the camera pivot rotation var bullitPrefab : GameObject; var target : playerMuzzleFlash;

private var onGround : boolean = false; //Determines whether the player is grounded or in air private var jump : boolean = false; //Determines whether the player should jump private var rb : Rigidbody; //Reference to the rigidbody component of the game object private var t : Transform; //Reference to the transform component of the game object

public var rayCastLength = 5; public var door1 : GameObject; public var door2 : GameObject; public var door3 : GameObject; public var door4 : GameObject; public var door5 : GameObject; public var door6 : GameObject; public var door7 : GameObject; public var door8 : GameObject; public var door9 : GameObject; public var doorStorage : GameObject;

function Awake() { rb = rigidbody; //Cache rigidbody component t = transform; //Cache transform component gameObject.layer = 8; //Set gameObject layer to Player layer }

//Check for one-off input in the Update loop since checking for input in FixedUpdate can lead to lost input events

function Update() {

     var hit : RaycastHit;

 if(Physics.Raycast(transform.position,transform.forward,hit,rayCastLength))
 {
     if (hit.collider.gameObject.tag =="door1")
         {
         openDoor1();    
         }

Well, instant hit weapons work totally different. It's not that hard to do but in your case i think it would be easier to simply put the bullets on the "ignore raycast" layer. I don't know what you mean by "jerking" but i guess your camera uses a Raycast or Sphere-/Capsule-cast to detect obstacles behind the camera. So if a bullet "travels" through your view the camera would zoom in. If you set your bullet prefab layer to ignore raycast that should be fixed.

If you still want to convert your weapon into a instant hit weapon, well, just look around on this site, there are many examples for such a behaviour. I don't think anyone here will write the whole script for you ;)

Yes, you are right, by " jerking " I mean that camera zoom in for 1 frame... :) Great idea to put bullet prefab to ignore raycast layer, but it's not working, camera still is trying to zoom in...

Hmm, i don't know how your camera script works. It was just a guess (our cam works like this ;)) We actually used a seperate "Ignore Camera collision" layer that is ignored by the camera.
