Title: Looking for help or advice with facing a direction.
Post by: Prestonh on December 25, 2018, 04:15:24 AM
So i have a split screen, on game pads, third person, so that limits a couple options.  But anywho,  player has a bow and when they go to shoot it, i pop up a aim targeting thing, and play the draw animations, ect. I also force the player to look in the same direction as the camera, so he actually shoots towards the target.  This all works, except there is one thing i dont like,  i was spawning the arrow from an object child to the player, but it seems when i force the look, the character looks in the right direction, but thier transform doesnt, which means my arrow spawn isnt where i want it, so i set my arrow spawn from a child to the camera, which seems to work so far.  But when i release the force look, the player snaps back to the transform direction.  Which to me just looks and feels shoddy.  Any suggestions?

Sorry for the delay, xmas and all.  Ill send some images tonight, i think i found the problem,  in my movement fsm, i have the get axis vector and such for the animator, but i also have a smooth look at, in that fsm, and when i draw the bow, i run a smooth look at to camera direction,  so im running 2 smooth look at, at the same time, and when i release the bow, it snaps back to the first smooth look at. I think.
