dry dew Oct 26, 2022, 5:19 PM

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:36 PM

#

midnight sparrow i know, i said not to be raycasts

then its impossible

#

unless u want it to shoot through the walls

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:37 PM

#

graceful heath then its impossible

there's tons of guns that dont have raycasts

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:37 PM

#

tell me friend

#

what do u think a raycast it

#

is*

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:38 PM

#

a raycast is basically a laser, you can choose how far it goes, you need to decide it's position and orientation, a raycast can be used for many actions, for example killing players when they touch the raycast, or change the color of a part when it touched the raycast

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:38 PM

midnight sparrow a raycast is basically a laser, you can choose how far it goes, you need to deci...

yeahhh no

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

thats literally what a raycast is

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

u think its visible?

#

hahaha

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

no, its not visible

#

never mentioned its visible

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

so u want a gun

#

that doesnt raycast

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

take for example the WB kit, when you search it on the toolbox, theres many guns there, that dont use raycasts

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

and it shoots through walls

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

no i dont want it to shoot through the walls

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

then raycast it

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

dude

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

thats the cheapskate way to damage

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

you can make the part remove when it touches another part

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:41 PM

#

cheapskate way also

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:41 PM

#

graceful heath thats the cheapskate way to damage

its usefull for making entities you have to hide from

#

how is it cheapskate way

#

its the normal way, the easy way

#

everybody wants to go the easy way

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

exactly

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

graceful heath cheapskate way also

just search WB on the toolbox and you will see many guns that dont shoot through walls and dont use raycasts

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

how you gonna get an advanced gun system going the easy way

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

midnight sparrow just search WB on the toolbox and you will see many guns that dont shoot through...

wb is shitty

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:42 PM

#

it still works

#

it does what i need

#

i need a system similar to that

#

but without the zooming in

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:43 PM

#

im out

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:43 PM

#

graceful heath im out

aight, seems like you just cant understand what i want and cant help me, if you cant help me then why did you come here in the first place

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:44 PM

#

think about it

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:45 PM

#

think about what? i dont want the bullets to instantly reach the target no matter how far it is, all good games DONT use raycasts for guns

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

use both

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

wdym use both

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

wait

#

technically

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

basically

#

lemme try and explain a bit more

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

bullets travel faster then the speed of light

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

when you shoot, the gun creates a part

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

so

#

it would be realistic

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

graceful heath bullets travel faster then the speed of light

excuse me?

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

no?

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

dude

#

an average bullet travels at 0.9 mach speed

#

1 mach speed is 1 times the speed of sound

#

nothing is faster than the speed of light

#

if something reaches the speed of light, that object will turn into energy and not be physical anymore

#

so no, it would not be realistic

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:48 PM

#

"When bullets fly through the air, they do so at amazing speeds. The fastest bullets travel more than 2,600 feet per second. That's equivalent to over 1,800 miles per hour. To put that in perspective, it's amazing to realize that bullets travel over twice the speed of sound!"

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:48 PM

#

"twice the speed of sound"

#

2 mach speed, not as fast as the speed of light

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:48 PM

#

i meant sound

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:49 PM

#

yeah, it does travel faster than sound

#

but, MOST bullets travel at 0.9 or 0.95 mach speed

graceful heath Oct 26, 2022, 11:49 PM

#

making it almost instantly

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:50 PM

#

pistols from assault riffler (like the AK-47) travel at about 2 mach speed

#

sniper riffle bullets travel at about 3 mach speed

#

machinegun bullets (like the minigun or railgun) travel at 4 mach speed

#

but most pistol bullets (9mm) travel at 0.1 mach speed

studio ** You are now Level 6! ** studio

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:51 PM

#

102 miles per hour

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:52 PM

#

graceful heath making it almost instantly

so, not really that instant

#

and 1 stud is 0.25 meters

#

meaning 1 meter would be 4 studs

#

1km would be 4000 studs

#

0.1 mach speed is 163 km per hour

#

meaning it would travel at 652000 studs per hour

#

and 10k studs per minute

#

1.5 studs per second

#

1.5K*

#

btw my math is:
4000*163 = 652000
652000/60 = 10k
10k/60 = 1.6k

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:56 PM

#

graceful heath making it almost instantly

hope what i said helped even a little bit

#

so, basically how the gun would work is

#

when you click it plays the shooting animation

#

it duplicates a part inside the serverstorage that has a scipt to delete itself once it touches something and if that something is a player it deals damage

midnight sparrow Oct 26, 2022, 11:59 PM

#

graceful heath making it almost instantly

did this help?

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:01 AM

#

midnight sparrow a raycast is basically a laser, you can choose how far it goes, you need to deci...

why dont you want it raycasted

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:02 AM

#

cuz not realistic

#

and plus you cant see it

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:03 AM

#

midnight sparrow and plus you cant see it

you can put a particle on the result.Position to show it has hit

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:03 AM

#

no i mean like, see the bullet actually moving

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:03 AM

#

and a muzzle flash on the gun

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:03 AM

#

midnight sparrow no i mean like, see the bullet actually moving

then the bullet would have to be slow

#

and since its slow

#

it wouldnt cover a lot of distance

#

making it fall

#

you have to give it a high velocity

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:04 AM

#

dude

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:04 AM

#

but when you give it a high velocity

#

it becomes hard to see

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:04 AM

#

but you can still see it

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:04 AM

#

making it like a raycast but more harder steps

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:04 AM

#

the making bullet part is quite easy

#

i care about the playing animation part

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:04 AM

#

midnight sparrow but you can still see it

it will be for 1 nanosecond and it would look less realistic

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

dude

#

not raycasts

#

no

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

midnight sparrow i care about the playing animation part

to play just load the animation with Animator:LoadAnimation(Animation)

#

and then play the loaded animation using AnimationTrack:Play()

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

ok but how do i make the idle animation

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

Animator is usually inside the HUmanoid

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

and running animation and all that shit

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

midnight sparrow ok but how do i make the idle animation

make a new post

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:05 AM

#

midnight sparrow and running animation and all that shit

"how to make a gun with custom animations"

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:06 AM

#

im pretty sure everyone would think it means a gun animation

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:06 AM

#

nobody would think that

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:06 AM

#

you should specify which type of animation it is

midnight sparrow Oct 27, 2022, 11:06 AM

#

omfg just leave it

#

idfc anymore

#

ffs

dry dew Oct 27, 2022, 11:07 AM

"to play just load the animation with Animator:LoadAnimation(Animation)
and then play the loaded animation using AnimationTrack:Play()"

#

example:

local anim = script.Animation
local humanoid = player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local animator = humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")
local animation = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)

animation:Play()```
