Title: Player push object (without a rigidbody) [SOLVED]
Post by: MarkD on February 17, 2017, 07:44:49 PM

Hey everyone,

In my scene I want the player to push a large sphere, let's call it a boulder.

The player can't have a rigidbody component since my player is using a motion controller. 

The boulder can have a rigidbody, however.

What I want to be able to do is apply force in the direction from where the player collides with the boulders collision.

It seems like I should be able to do something like getting the vector of the player object on collision and then storing that as a variable and applying force in that direction to the boulder.  But everything I've tried has failed.

Anyone smarter than me have any ideas?

target would be the ball, source the character
