Faux Gravity?

[karim]

Hi all,

Is it possible to achieve something like Tail Drift Gravity  http://unity3d.com/contest/flash-in-a-flash/

Without much coding?

Best,
Karim

hi,

"Without much coding" yes, "Without much effort", no

 Basically, you need to apply a gravity force that is always pointing in the opposite direction of the trail.

basically, I would define the path using a real spline that would be used to extrude the trail mesh as well as be used to control the movement.

here I think the plane is not moved by itself but rather using "u" of the spline, so you control a moving point on the spline itself, then the plane follow that point taking in consideration the gravity ( itself towards the spine point it currently follows).

 Not overly complex, but definitly not easy neither!

some post to read and study carefully:
