I would like my NPC to shoot straight projectiles (no gravity) at the target. It seems if I change the “override gravityZ” input on the “suggest projectile velocity” nodes, it completely breaks. Maybe I just dont understand what the gravity input was supposed to mean.
My projectiles work just fine with default gravity, but if I want to shoot ones that dont use gravity, the node breaks completely. Anyone know how to use the node for projectiles with no gravity?
You don’t need Suggest Projectile Velocity.You can set directly the projectile Initial Speed in the projectile movement component.
I think Suggest Projectile Velocity is the result of a ballistic calculation in gravity. The idea is to provide a distance and an angle, the system will calculate the arc and suggest the velocity needed to reach that distance. At least as far as I remember.
Set the gravity in PMC and simply don’t override the suggest option.
The problem is im trying to make a pooled projectile fire at a player. so initial velocity isnt used. Im setting the velocity after calling the projectile from a pool
I set the projectile location, then make it visible, then set its velocity.
The suggest velocity node works really well for this. but only if gravity is default
This causes the projectile to be fired over the player’s head because the suggested velocity node assumes default gravity
