So there are two ways to fix this. One, if the player is holding a gun is to actually fire the bullet from the crosshair point on the screen. The flash from the turret or gun will give the illusion that the bullet comes from there.
I can’t do this since I use a static mesh for bullets and game logic, it’d be awkward for bullets to come out from the camera center and have the muzzle flash on the gun lol.
The second is to do a line trace from the gun to the hit point and move the cross hair to the location of the hit point on the screen. This is then a predicted hit point.
I also tried this one before posting. It works but the problem in this case is that the crosshair will either disappear or remain static if the line trace hits nothing which is obviously bad.
But you know what? I didn’t think of this so maybe I’ll just leave it as it is until someone suggests a solution, thank you
