Hiya,
I hope you're all well. I'm confused. Story of my life.
I've got a bunch of enemy drones that are children of an object moving towards the Mothership. When you intercept them and started shooting them, they de-parent from the 'Move Towards' object and then target your player space ship.
When they de-parent they use rigidbody/look at/apply force physics to attack you.
So, at the moment the drones are de-parented, I want to add a moment of outward force so they spread out and then target your player spaceship.
I'm using the Explosion action, but I'm having problems setting the parameters on the Action. As there are no visualisations for the action I don't know if the Force should be 10 or 100, and the same for the Radius, like, what is the scale?
I can fiddle around with trial and error for Force/Radius, so that'll be okay, but the main misunderstanding I'm having is the Layer and Layer Mask settings.
I thought I should just have my Enemies on the Layer setting, but when I hover the cursor over Layer Mask, the little message pops up saying- Type: Int Array Layers to Effect, so I put it in there. I dunno.
At the moment, I'm not getting any result from the Explosion action, and I just wondered if somebody could please give me a push in the right direction, ie - tell me how to set it up?
Many thanks.
J.
