I would spawn each at its hit location and have then animate up

mental rover
#

what does where T : IAdditionSubtraction<T> actually do here, when it's the same class/interface?

cosmic rain
#

I know this recursive generics logic is confusing.😅

thin aurora
#

It's hard to explain

mental rover
#

it's the recursive aspect I'm not really following - how can it implement itself (other than trivially)? is there a concrete example that shows the purpose of it?

quartz folio
#

it's a constraint, it's saying that T must be of that type

thin aurora
quartz folio
#

so you're forcing someone to make the implementation implement the implementation's type, and not someone else's

#

like class A : IAdditionSubtraction<A>
You can only use A as the generic parameter, because only A inherits from IAdditionSubtraction<A>, which makes sense here because it's forcing A to implement the addition of two A's. It would be nonsense code if class A : IAdditionSubtraction<B>, because A can only implement operators for itself

Hi, I'm coding some sort of orbital camera that can move using a click and drag. That works by moving a target object which the camera follows and orbit.
I'm trying to stop the target object from being able to move into other objects, which works just fine using a BoxCast. However I don't want this object to simply stop but to "slide" against these other objects. My camera does that but I know the formula is not the same and I can't wrap my head around the one I need.
Here is a snippet of my code :

void TargetMovement()
    {
        if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1))
        {
            isTargetMoving = true;
        }
        if (Input.GetMouseButtonUp(1))
        {
            isTargetMoving = false;
        }

        if (isTargetMoving)
        {
            Plane plane = new Plane(Vector3.up, Vector3.zero);
            Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);

            if (plane.Raycast(ray, out float distance))
            {
                if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1))
                {
                    dragOrigin = ray.GetPoint(distance);
                }
                else
                {
                    Vector3 direction = dragOrigin - ray.GetPoint(distance);
                    direction.Normalize();

                    float distanceToMove = direction.magnitude;
                    float size = 0.01f;

                    RaycastHit hit;
                    if (Physics.BoxCast(focus.position, new Vector3(size, size, size), direction, out hit, Quaternion.identity, distanceToMove))
                    {
                        // Here
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        focus.position += dragOrigin - ray.GetPoint(distance);
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        focusPoint = focus.position;
    }

#

wdym slide against the box?

tardy agate
#

prevent moving forward but allow moving on sides, so when the target bumps into another object it stops moving further forward but still can go left and right as long as there's no objects blocking that movement

#

pretty much like if the target was a player following the ground shape, but it's a target following objects shapes

#

if that makes sense

tepid river
#

im no expert on camera mechanics, but couldnt you just give the camera a sphere collider and then have the camera try to move towards the desired position?

#

boxcasting will f.e. not stop a moving 0bject from driving into your camera

tardy agate
#

it's not about the camera, the camera works just fine and has its own boxcast. i'm talking about the target object that the camera follows

potent sleet
tardy agate
#

sure, give me a few minutes

violet mica
#

follow-up on this: i kept digging until eventually i discovered a few things:

  1. the console's "clear on build" option was enabled somehow (i keep it disabled, but it got re-enabled, not sure how), and that caused the console to clear even when the build threw errors.
  2. the post-process script didn't run because my builds were in a strange state where they failed to finish but most build files were created anyway
  3. the specific errors that caused the build to throw errors (and therefore skip the post-process method) were related to a syntax errors in a js plugin in the project.
tardy agate
#

nothing in the if BoxCast here, only in the else

#

the camera (separated code) works just fine, but I can't wrap my head around the target to have the same behavior

quartz folio
#

It would help if you could actually see the box cast. Window/Analysis/Physics Debugger might have a way to display queries depending on your version. Otherwise you can use a visual debugging package like mine https://github.com/vertxxyz/Vertx.Debugging

tardy agate
#

i think DrawWireCube would do the trick, I'll try that

restive ice
#

if I have a
Foo<BarConcrete> foo
where BarConcrete : Bar (Bar is abstract)

Why does foo is Foo<BarConcrete> return false?

I basically want a list of List<Foo<Bar>> where I can fill it with Foo<BarConcrete> implementations, but I seem to be doing something wrong...

leaden ice
restive ice
#

I have a public abstract class MonoDependencyContainer : MonoBehaviour

#

then I have a concrete implementation of that:

#

public class ArchitectControllerDependencyContainer : MonoDependencyContainer

#

I also have a

#

public abstract class MonoDependencyInstaller<T> : MonoBehaviour, IDependencyInstaller where T : MonoDependencyContainer

which has a child abstract class

public abstract class QueuedMonoDependencyInstaller<T> : MonoDependencyInstaller<T> where T : MonoDependencyContainer

#

and a concrete implementation of that:
public class ArchitectControllerInstaller : QueuedMonoDependencyInstaller<ArchitectControllerDependencyContainer>

#

now I have a GameInstaller where I want to do

FindObjectsOfType<QueuedMonoDependencyInstaller<MonoDependencyContainer>>();

quartz folio
#

Iirc the only way you could assign Foo<BarConcrete> to a spot defined as Foo<Bar> is if it was defined as covariant, which only works with interfaces? I don't use covariance and contravariance as it's too confusing 😛

leaden ice
quartz folio
#

I am almost certain that even if you could fix the generics you could not do this with FindObjectsOfType

restive ice
leaden ice
#

Not any subtypes too

#

In fact what is rider's warning saying there?

quartz folio
#

probably saying that there's no types that implement that

restive ice
restive ice
#

which makes sense as I have only one so it is a 'useless' check right now other than knowing that the is operator returns the expected result.

quartz folio
#

I have no idea if you could use that with FindObjectsOfType though, I barely use the thing, do generics even work with it?

restive ice
#

Okay ill definitely look at that. Do you have any other suggested approaches?

I can give you a little context to what im trying to do

quartz folio
#

I am not good at architecture questions unless I'm very intently thinking about it, so I sadly can't help 😛
Though it looks a bit like a dependency injection architecture, and there's a load of implementations of those out there for Unity that you can pull architectures from if you're interested in making your own

#

How to rotate my line so that it points to my point?

quartz folio
#

how are you defining these things

orchid bane
#

The point is a Vector3

quartz folio
#

if the line is a mesh going down transform.forward then just orient the transform using the direction to the point, which is (point - transform.position).normalized

#

you can just set transform.forward to that

orchid bane
#

Mesh goes horizontally on x axis

quartz folio
#

If you need more control over the up vector, use Quaternion.LookRotation to define a rotation

#

then set transform.right

orchid bane
#

It works with world coordinates, is there a local alternative?

quartz folio
#

No idea what you mean by that, what's local?

You create the asset within the asset script? What method is it in?

dusk apex
# vagrant echo i know there is layer collision setting but is there any spesific collider ignor...

No there isn't.

Particle collisions are not controlled by the physics system (2D or 3D) but by the particle system itself. The particle system simply runs queries just like you would in scripts; it's not part of the physics simulation. In other words, it's just a user of it so no physics API will control it.

The API docs for the CollisionModule of the ParticleSystem shows what's available: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/ParticleSystem.CollisionModule.html which is the ability to filter by layer.

lowering the centre of mass is indeed a good idea, but to be honest, wheel colliders aren't a good thing for racing games, especially arcade racing games

or the best for like arcade style

using raycasts at each corners, calculating spings and adding forces and torque to all of that is a good practice overall. I'm no expert tho, but that's what I use and most people seem to

I'll just disable the components I need to disable and then destroy it after the delay

btw, what Time variable should i use if i want to make a line of code stay active until a timer hits zero (duration), and then another timer counts the delay before the line of code can be activated again via a button press (cooldown)?

i am trying to make something like that using time.deltatime, but my problem comes from when i try to do it a second time after the original cooldown is over. the duration timer is skipped and thus the line of code that is supposed to stay active until the duration is over stays active permanently instead...

i might need some advice. my script is very long and full of stuff that does not make sense without commenting text, so gimme a second to add said comments.

leaden ice
#

idk what you mean by "what Time variable"

#

deltaTime is the only one you need when making timers in Update

stark wing
leaden ice

deltaTime just tells you how much time has passed since the previous frame

in seconds

that's all it is

Is there a fast way to get the corners of all TileMapColliders/CompositeCollider2D in a scene? Or even a specific range, like if i sphere casted? Right now im raycasting in a circle to try to find them, but obviously the accuracy is limited to the precision of the raycast angle, and gets worse the farther out I cast. Basically does the collider itself have a method to tell me what its corners are? Ideally i want the ones marked in this picture, but i'd be happy to take the inside ones too and sort them out

I'm wondering if you guys think it's more architecturally beneficial to create an empty script to act as a type workaround, as in like you can call GetComponent<T>() instead of something like rb.CompareTag() to avoid string comparisons

The type or namespace name 'Localization' does not exist in the namespace 'UnityEngine' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

#

using UnityEngine.Localization;

#

Three options basically @waxen kayak :

  • You did not install the package
  • You did not properly configure your IDE/regenerate cs projects (in this case you will see the error in your IDE only, not in Unity)
  • Your code is in an assembly which is missing an assembly dependency on the Localization assembly.

lets say there's a specific ball I want to ignore when it hits another rigidbody terms of collision, but everything else I want to keep

leaden ice
mystic ferry
mystic ferry
#

or does it ignore collisions entirely

leaden ice
#

you said you want to ignore it

mystic ferry
#

I guess the obvious answer would be no, but I'll ask anyway

west lotus
#

You need to set your collision matrix accordingly

leaden ice
leaden ice
mystic ferry
#

since you seem to be a physics god I'll ask you something relatively similar

#

basically I have object B colliding into object A. I want to apply my own kinematic physics on impact to object B, and I don't want ANY forces from the collision to move object A, but I still need object A to be dynamic for other objects in the scene

#

I considered locking the position constraint, but that causes other issues

#

I also tried setting isKinematic for OnCollisionEnter and Exit, but there seem to be a few frames where it's still impacted by the collision impulse

leaden ice
#

There's no good way to do it in basic unity

#

that's why I'm writing an asset for it

mystic ferry
#

I see. what a shame

leaden ice
#

Set the bullet mass to 0

#

is the closest you can get

#

ANother way is to make a child object of child B that is kinematic

#

with a separate collider

#

and on a separate layer

#

have that kinematic child only interact with the bullet through layer based collisions

#

the parent can be dynamic and interact normally with the rest of the scene

#

Just remembered you can do this 😆

mystic ferry
#

wow okay, that might actually work

#

a little convoluted, but a solution nonetheless

#

I have some code that move cubes back and forth, the movement seems smooth, but when looking at the shadows, it seems like they move in small steps, any idea what's wrong with this code, if you think it's something with the code?

Assumed it had to do with something else because Lerp should be smooth, thoughts?

Hey I have a card passed to a unit like this, the numbers get passed well but the TMP.texts are all empty. Why is that?

image.png
dim spindle
dim spindle
#

and what a unit

dull stag
#

Just a script, MonoBehavior on a GameObject

dim spindle
#

ok? what is in the script

#

you cant just expect me to know what your script does

#

without reading it

dull stag
#

Not much, just copies data

{
    public Card card;

    public TextMeshPro actionPointsText;
    public TextMeshPro attackText;
    public TextMeshPro healthText;

    int maxActionPoints;
    int actionPoints;
    int attack;
    int range;
    int maxHealth;
    int health;

    void Start ()
    {
        actionPointsText.text = card.ActionPointsText.text;
        maxActionPoints = card.ActionPoints;
        actionPoints = card.ActionPoints;
        attackText.text = card.AttackText.text;
        attack = card.Attack;
        range = card.Range;
        healthText.text = card.HealthText.text;
        maxHealth = card.Health;
        health = card.Health;
    }
}```
leaden ice
#

seems like a pretty weird setup though

dull stag
#

They are not empty but get emptied after passing the card 😄

leaden ice
dull stag
#

The numbers do get passed

leaden ice
#

show what card.HealthText.text is

#

and what gets passed along

#

and how that differs from what you expect

dull stag
#

It's "1" on the card and it's displayed on the screen, but "" after passed

leaden ice
#

Note that it's NOT shown in your screenshot above

#

It seems weird to me that you're not just doing healthText.text = health.ToString();

dull stag
#

Yes I can do that no problem

#

But why is TMP not passed?

leaden ice
#

it is passed

dull stag
#

Just empty

leaden ice
#

it's empty in the source

#

so it's empty when "passed"

#

it's jsut... it makes very little sense that you're doing it this way

#

why would you ever want the text and the int to hold different values?

dull stag
#

It's not empty you can see on the first picture

leaden ice
#

you didn't include it in any of your pictures

dull stag
#

My card script does

    {
        GoldText.text = Gold.ToString();
        ManaText.text = Mana.ToString();

        ActionPointsText.text = ActionPoints.ToString();
        AttackText.text = Attack.ToString();
        RangeText.text = Range.ToString();
        HealthText.text = Health.ToString();
    }```
leaden ice
leaden ice
#

In general:

  • Do SELF initialization in Awake
  • Do initialization that relies on other objects already being initialized in Start
dull stag
#

Damn 😄

#

The card is in the scene when the scene starts though

#

Units are bought later

leaden ice
#

then it's a just a problem that the source is empty

#

Start using Debug.Log

dull stag
#

Why the numbers passed then?

leaden ice
#

because the numbers are not empty

leaden ice
#

you are making a lot of assumptions instead of testing and verifying things

#

which you can do with log statements and other debugging techniques

dull stag
#

I see them on the screen though

image.png
leaden ice
#

these things are all far removed from your code

#

the screen

#

etc

#

you haven't even verified that the card being read from is the same card you see on screen

#

for example

#

The fastest way to get to an answer is stop guessing and start debugging like you are serious about finding the problem.

dull stag
#

I tried printing a lot of stuff

leaden ice
#

such as?

dull stag
#

Card name

#

Card type

#

TMP.text type

#

All are ok

leaden ice
#

that stuff isn't terribly useful. Better would be:

  • the value you are copying.
  • the value you got after copying
  • The object you copied it from (and use this in the context parameter of Debug.Log so you can ping it in the scene and/or project folder)
dull stag
leaden ice
# dull stag

these logs are hard to read since they're not really labelled

#

no idea what the second two are supposed to be

dull stag
#

HealthText.text

leaden ice
#

which one?

#

healthText.text = card.HealthText.text;

#

the one from the card or the one from the unit

#

if it's from the card, then that's why it's empty - because it was empty on the card.

dull stag
#

First from card before passing, second from unit.card

it owuldn't hurt to throw in an instance id too:

# 
Debug.Log($"{name}:{GetInstanceID()} is Copying '{card.HealthText.text}' from the card {card.name}:{card.GetInstanceID()}");
healthText.text = card.HealthText.text;
Debug.Log($"Now my text has '{healthText.text}'");```
dull stag
#

Cool, I save this

leaden ice
#

especially with the instance ID it will really help you track where you're copying things from

dull stag
#

I think it really copies the empty string, and doesn't care about the updated text from Start()

leaden ice
#

it will only copy the empty string if the string is empty

Hello! Im not sure if this is the right place to post this, but Ive been stuck on what I would think is a simple solution. I am trying to detect if a target is on the front,back, left or right of the player. It seems that I could easily get left/right and back/front working separately but I cannot get them to work together, because the floats are so similar to eachother the player starts looking in the wrong directions

Vector3 toTarget = (target.position - transform.position).normalized;
        float north = Vector3.Dot(toTarget, transform.forward), east = Vector3.Dot(toTarget, transform.right);

        float mathnorth = Mathf.Abs(north), matheast = Mathf.Abs(east);

        if (mathnorth > matheast)
        {
            if (north > 0)
                direction = Direction.South;
            else
                direction = Direction.North;
        }
        else
        {
            if (east > 0)
                direction = Direction.West;
            else
                direction = Direction.East;
        }

#

since all your variables are public it's hard to say if things aren't changing elsewhere

Changing Start to Awake doesn't solve it

float angle = Vector3.SignedAngle(transform.forward, target.position - transform.position, transform.up);
angle += 180; // go from -180,180 to 0-360
angle = (angle + 45) % 360; // adjust it by 45 degrees to get the quadrants right.
angle /= 90; // get a number 0-3
int quadrant = Mathf.FloorToInt(angle);```
#

somethins like this should get you a number 0-3 which can easily be cast to your enum

dull stag
sterile gate
#

Amazing, thank you a ton!

dull stag
#

Yes I think it copies the default value and doesn't check that it's already updated

leaden ice
#

perhaps it's referencing a prefab for example

#

instead of the instance in the scene

dull stag
#

I dragged the prefab into Unity editor

leaden ice
#

that's why you need to do things like printing the instance id

leaden ice
#

you're referencing the prefab

#

not the instance in the scene

#

no wonder you're getting "default" values

dull stag
#

But I can't drag the instance in if it's created later

leaden ice
#

no you can't

#

but you can still pass references around in code

#

Instantiate returns a reference to the newly created object

#

pass that reference to your script

#

not the prefab reference.

dull stag
#

Should have posted in beginner room 😄

Thanks for taking the time 😄

im to dumb to figure it out:
have this little code in my Update() method, but the slerp happens way to fast.

i want it to be exactly 5 seconds till complete, but its more like 10 to 50 times faster

        if (phase != oldPhase)
        {
            quatSlerp = 0f;
            oldPhase = phase;
        }
        quatSlerp = Mathf.Min(1, quatSlerp + Time.deltaTime / 50f);
        Quaternion wantedRot = Quaternion.LookRotation(shipForward);
        this.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(this.transform.rotation, wantedRot, quatSlerp);
    }
#

thats also the only postion where quatSlerp is touched, apart from being initialized with zero

stable osprey
#

you should be using cached from and to values, and just update the t

dusk apex
#

Yeah, the docs are misleading as well. They ought to have cached the Quaternion. Transform would be a reference.

Error on their part.

aaaah damn

yeah lol no surprise

The docs are also written under the assumption the user would do certain things, like cache those values. PES2_Shrug

Do you suggest something else for show my health bar only for a couple of seconds after a hit and hide if no more hit are received ?

leaden ice
#

Seems fine

tepid juniper
# velvet quartz ```cs private void HasHealth_OnHealthChanged(object sender, IHasHealth.OnHealthC...

when health is changed save it to global variable = Previous health. Then when you call Hide, check if the previous health and current health is the same. if it the same, continue, if not then call hideTimer again. Also check on show if it already active? as you might have stack of coroutines running one after another which might or might not give you headpain in the future. Plus if this runs on a lot of objects, you will have less performance issues

velvet quartz
#

Hum i don't understand what you trying to do + only one coroutine can run at the same time since i call StopAllCoroutines() before start another one.

tepid juniper
#

I mean your code is not wrong at all. it will work as you wanted without problem. but you asked for opinions, I giving you one

#

One more suggestion, if your project is not on webgl, I would start using Async and Tasks instead of coroutines. It is a bit more complicated but gives so much freedom and dont run in main thread. Async + scriptable obejcts is two things that changed all my approaches to code/

leaden ice
#

Unity async runs on the main thread

tepid juniper
leaden ice
#

Sure but you can't just magically start Task.Running stuff as an instant replacement to coroutines

tepid juniper
#

That is true. But it is not much harder either. And sorry if I miss talked, it is not replacement. Coroutines is good, they have their usages, especially when you just want to shoot and forget. And performance is pretty much the same, sometimes even better on coroutines. It just async Tasks gives much more flexibility, and I like how they look in code much more 😄

quartz folio
#

Tasks are a good replacement, the complaint is more about the threading stuff, everything will be on the main thread unless you're using quite specific apis

#

now there's the destroyCancellationToken it makes using Tasks actually feasible in Unity, and with Awaitable it removes the need to use UniTask to do some basic coroutine-like stuff

tepid juniper
quartz folio
#

Coroutines are a lot safer to learn though, can't eat exceptions when you do things wrong, or run out of play mode into the editor context

#

I don't believe there's a specific reason to use UniTask for WebGL

tepid juniper
quartz folio
#

Tasks are not threaded unless you explicitly use something like Task.Run

tepid juniper
#

and depends on how you start the task, it starts but never returns anything in await and etc.

im having the biggest headache in the world. My navmesh has procedurally generated obstacles to create a maze, however when my agent is using .SetDestination() and the target is too far away, the path status is "partial", or incomplete. When the path is shorter, it follows it fine. I don't get what is wrong here.

Is there a way to measure the length of an edge of a collider2D?

hexed pecan
#

Oh I read that as Edge Collider 2D which is a specific component

timber snow
#

fwiw my level geometry is a composite collider set to polygon mode

cosmic rain
timber snow
#

Was just a more basic version of the question I asked in the advanced channel

cosmic rain
#

Yeah, but you didn't explain it there either. Are you planning to lerping between the points or something?

timber snow
#

The movement of my player isn’t based on unity’s physics, I’m writing my own physics and collision code so I can fine tune the exact way my player interacts with slopes and level geometry

cosmic rain
#

So you write your own physics but, you're still relying on unity physics..?😅

#

I still don't see how the length of the edge is relevant.

timber snow
#

The issue I’m running into is that moving from a vertical slope to a flat surface will cause the player to be placed in the air; the solution I’ve been using to circumvent this is to snap the player downwards if they’re in a grounded movement state, but this causes other issues and doesn’t always solve the actual problem

cosmic rain
#

Character movement shouldn't be affected by the length of the slope imho

timber snow
#

The solution that I need is a way to trace the player’s ground movement along the collision, and at each new ground plane, determine whether or not to continue along the path, stop the player, or place them into the air

cosmic rain
timber snow
#

The only thing stopping me from getting that solution is that I can’t figure out a way to obtain the vertexes of the ground I’m trying to path along

cosmic rain
timber snow
#

Moving up a slope means your velocity is directed along the normal of the slope

#

Once you reach the apex of that slope, your velocity is pointed into the air

#

The normal tells me the angle of the floor plane, it doesn’t tell me where it ends

#

To move the player along the floor I need to know where the end of the floor plane is, otherwise I can only path along the floor if the next plane intersects the direction I’m moving in

cosmic rain
timber snow
#

Yeah, and then I’m in the air, lol

cosmic rain
#

So you don't wanna be in the air?

#

Is that the problem?

timber snow
#

What you’re suggesting is that I check the normal of the floor the player is above at all times, but this doesn’t account for cases where the floor doesn’t smoothly continue from one plane to the next, such as a short drop

cosmic rain
#

Is your character supposed to be bound to the ground 100% of the time?

timber snow
#

Why are you arguing with me about my own movement logic lmao

cosmic rain
cosmic rain
timber snow
#

When you’re in a grounded state, you need to be remain grounded when moving over sloped terrain

#

If the slope you’re moving towards is too steep, or there isn’t ground beneath where your moving, it would need to place you in the air

#

The most efficient way to accomplish this would be to trace a path along the ground, and at each change in the ground’s normal, determine what to do based on the normal; this iteration would stop once the player has reached the end of their velocity for this frame

cosmic rain
#

Ok, so it is possible to be in the air?
Then again, I don't understand why the sampling the normals method wouldn't work?

#

Raycast at the ground and correct your velocity to be perpendicular to the ground normal

timber snow
#

That’s what I’m already doing, I’ve explained this

cosmic rain
#

Ok, then why do you need the edge vertices?

timber snow
#

Adjusting your speed to be perpendicular to the ground will indeed make you travel along the ground

#

However, if on a given frame you move past the edge of the ground, you’ll be placed into the air

#

This is not the intended behavior when moving from a slope to flat ground

#

To prevent this, currently, I raycast downwards at the end of movement if my motion didn’t intersect any colliders, and then snap to the floor below me

#

If you move fast enough, this raycast will not reach the floor

#

If you raycast far enough that it prevents that issue, you’ll start snapping to things that you shouldn’t, like walking over a steep ledge snapping you to the floor at the bottom

#

It’s not an adequate solution

#

The only way to prevent the player from becoming airborne would be to know what the endpoint of the floor plane is, so you can redirect your speed towards the next floor plane on a frame where you cross over that edge

cosmic rain
# timber snow If you move fast enough, this raycast will not reach the floor

How about raycasting ahead of the character based on it's speed then? If you cast at your character and ahead of it, and the normals of the hits different, you know that your character will cross the edge end point in the next frame. Then you can do some additional logic to adjust the velocity such that the character remain snapped to the ground.

quartz folio
#

You can also just do a number of raycasts to catch any issues you might be having

I want to be able to open a debug menu for a game via Unity when I press something like Volume Up + the Power button or something like that.
But I can't seem to find anything on how to listen to those buttons being pressed.

Some one with Animator knowledge?
Im Playing animation via script to prevent Animator spaghetti.
An Attack animation is being played , Triggers an "Attack done" event , Changes to Idle for 1 frame , and than the Attack animation is called again. i did Debugs and the sequance of animations plays is correct , but for some reason , even tho the second Attack animation is called , it is not being played. it's as if the animator just ignores the script call to play it again

Hello people
I have a script that shoots a projectile rigidbody whenever i click mouse0. I want to make it so that when I hold and shoot, and when I'm holding, if I move my mouse/flick it in a general direction, depending on the direction and the extent, I want the projectile to curve, but ultimately end up at the same spot as a projectile without the curve would end up in.
My guess is that
-I record the initial camera angle as initRot
-I record the end camera angle as finalRot
-I find the curve direction using vectors
-I find the angle between then using quaternions and then simulate projectile motion using simple physics, but alter direction of gravity to suit the curve direction

Is this possible?

#

Don't really understand what you mean. You want the projectile to end up in the same spot wherever you aim your shot?

open lake
#

yeah but I wanted the path to curve depending on how I move my mouse when I'm holding the shoot button

#

So if you're aiming in the opposite direction of the target what happens?

no,

#

I meant that it always ends up in the crosshair hit point

ok so it is what i thought its somewhat random and no way to really tell. i just found a problem where two different scenes with the same uncertain code could trigger or not depending on when the update event of another object was called. so one it worked as intended and the other it didnt. i havent really run into that before as i usually make checks to avoid this kinda thing

Hey! I need some help with meshes. I am currently migrating a project from three js to unity and I have a geojson with latlngs that I am using to make a three.Shape (https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/extras/core/Shape) The shape has something called holes and this is very useful as I just give it a path for the outer bounds of the polygon that I have reformated from the latlng with mercator projection and then I give it the holes inside of this polygon (in the same format) and it calulcates everything for me, but I can't seam to find a good way to do this in unity. Can anyone help me out? I have multiple ideas, either to make multiple meshes and somehow "cut" one out from the other (like boolean in blender, this is they way I want to avoid) or in c# somehow calulate and triangulate it with the holes, but how do I do that?

Q: Is it possible to nest prefabs so that the nested prefab is at the root of the outer most one? Or are you forced to put a nested prefab into a child gameobject?

How can I use a script asset as a variable? (Rather than a reference to a component in a scene)

#

Like if I wanted a modifiable array of scripts that would be added to a game object at start or through an editor button.

You can use UnityEngine.Object or UnityEditor.MonoScript. Not sure if it is a good idea though as it won't work at run time.

I have a problem, sometimes when this script activated (at least the first time it does in a play test) I have a sudden lag spike what I assume is a lag spike,
As I said, it happens only the first time it should active in a Play test and I dont know why it happens

    private void Start()
    {
        CarryPosition = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("BagCarryPoint");
        Pickable = LayerMask.GetMask("Pickable");
        pickUpRange = 3f;
        carrySomething = false;
        cam = FindAnyObjectByType<Camera>();

        pickUpUI = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Canvas").GetComponent<Transform>().Find("pickUpUI").gameObject;
    }

    private void Update()
    {
        if (carrySomething == false)
        {
            if(Physics.Raycast(cam.transform.position, cam.transform.forward, out hit, pickUpRange, Pickable))
            {
                pickUpUI.SetActive(true);
            }
            else
            {
                if(pickUpUI.activeSelf == true)
                {
                    pickUpUI.SetActive(false);
                }
            }
        }
    }
#

I am referring to the bit where I set active the pickUpUI gameObject

#

thats when it lags

If you have a "lag spike" that is absolutely a performance problem

I have 2 lists with 5 elements

#

I am going to sort the first list....how do I make the 2nd list make the same "changes"

#

aka if I have list starting at
12345 and it becomes, 15243...how do I make the 2nd list elements swap the same?

steady moat
#

Why are you not using the same list ?

leaden ice
#

easier would be one list with a struct or tuple containing both values

#

and then ordered as you like

thick socket
#

hmm, forgot about that thanks

thick socket
steady moat
#

Like @leaden ice said, use a tuple (Item item, VisualElements ui) or a struct.

thick socket
steady moat
#

List<(item item, VisualElements ui)>

thick socket
#

oh, didn't know that was a thing thanks

thick socket
steady moat
#

Yeah

thick socket
#

awesome thanks

steady moat

if you do not name, you need to use Item1, Item2, etc.

stoic dagger
thick socket
steady moat
#

You can also use a struct, if you not like the syntax.

leaden ice
leaden ice

there's nothing you can do with tuples that can't be done with good old fashioned classes and structs

steady moat

Each their own style.

thick socket

any real reason to use structs over classes?

steady moat
#

Performance

thick socket
#

I get the default public/private thing

#

oh?

leaden ice
#

can help avoid GC too, if you know what you're doing.

steady moat
#

If you have a lot of data in an array, it is better to use struct because the data is kept sequentially which prevent cache miss speeding up drastically the performance of iterating through data.

leaden ice
#

Well that depends entirely on whether you want to pass references to that data around in other ways than passing the array itself and an index around 😉

thick socket
# 
struct ItemPlusVisualElement{
    Items item;
    VisualElement visualElement;

        this.visualElement = visualElement;
    }
}
#

any specific struct thing Im missing that people normally do?

steady moat
#

Use property.

leaden ice
steady moat
#

And I am pretty sure you do not need constructor

leaden ice
#

You don't need a constructor unless you want to do some readonly/immutable stuff

you can use object initializer

    public Items item;

why bother having a basic get/set?

steady moat
#

Because encapsulation

#

Maintanability

thick socket
#

since you just pass in the 2 params instead of having to set them both?

steady moat
#

If you feel that it is the case, feel free to use it.

#

It is more of a code style decision.

thick socket
#

wasn't sure if there was some performance hit or other reason not to 😄

leaden ice
#

there's no performance issue with it - but you can be lazy and not make one

thick socket
#

gotcha thanks 🙂

thick socket
#

I've only used get / private set before though

steady moat
#

If you want to modify the value from the outside.

#

You need the set to be public.

thick socket
steady moat
#

No, it would be variable, not a property

#

Which would break the encapsulation.

#

And potentially cause issue in refactoring.

thick socket
#

gotcha, totally forgot those are different things 😄

steady moat
#

But, you can do whatever you want. In this case, the encapsulation is not really important.

#

Personally, I do it for uniformisation of my code/code style.

why not just move via physics and use real colliders instead of trigger colliders?
Then you get your desired behavior automatically.

Combine the following 2 lines into 1 line of code
var tmp = string.Join(" ", Regex.Split(name, @"(?<!^)(?=[A-Z])"));

```cs
var result = Regex.Replace(string.Join(" ", Regex.Split(name, @"(?<!^)(?=[A-Z])")), @"[\d-]", string.Empty);

e.g. one at the top one at the bottom

gameObject.Find would be a compile error

You might be thinking of Transform.Find

which works more like a filesystem

This is getting _startGameButton just fine:

  var playerPanel = _playerPanels.FirstOrDefault(x => x.PlayerId == playerId);
  if (playerPanel == null) {
    playerPanel = Instantiate(_playerPanelPrefab, _playerPanelParent);

  playerPanel.SetContent(playerId, playerData);

Check if the player has crossed with the trigger collider, and check if he's looking at the door with the rotation. Raycasting would be more precise but I don't think you need this level of precision right=? you just want the classic maze door disapears as I look away effect right?

I've been hearing a lot about things called singletons and how, generally, they're looked down upon and/or are bad. Going through my project, I realized that I actually have several singletons, and intentionally made so. I was wondering if it was bad practice to be using them or if I should do something else entirely?

Here's a list of them with a brief explanation, they're all monobehaviours/gameobjects btw-
LocalPlayer- Just the player, it's a custom fps controller
GameManager- On creation it loads all of the game's setting files, handles debug gui, and implements a custom runtime console
RunDirector- Handles the entire game loop, keeps track of player health, points, etc along with enemy budget, health, and etc
PointSpawner- It's just a pool to spawn points, it's also the only singleton that gets destroyed on loading a new scene

This is all still just a work in progress, but I thought I would be helpful to see if I'm using bad design practices or not.

#

Oh and there's a few more, these aren't monobehaviours-
LocalSettings.Input (alternatively InputSettings.Current)
LocalSettings.Video
LocalSettings.GUI

they all just handle global setting variables that are updated from the files, like field of view, key bindings, mouse sensitivity, etc

# grizzled needle I've been hearing a lot about things called singletons and how, generally, they'...

understanding why singletons are considered bad is much more valuable than taking at face-value that they "shouldn't" be in a project. Singletons are considered "bad" because they hide dependencies and make systems very coupled between one another without that fact being obvious (as in, coupled classes have dependencies listed right at the top, verses calling a manager in a static context). Singletons are honestly very powerful and very useful in situations like manager classes that need to be accessed by many things

#

manager classes are going to be very clearly coupled between a lot of systems, so hiding dependencies in that sense isn't a bad thing. It's expected

does Physics2D.OverlapBox/Area not work as I think it does? I'm checking to see if there is a collider at a given spot with Physics2D.OverlapBox and Physics2D.OverlapArea. I'm very confident that my coordinates/layermasks are right, but I'm getting nothing back. Does the collider need to be entirely contained within the box? or is it enough that the box overlaps any amount with any colliders?

the area I'm defining and the collider I'm trying to detect should have identical positions/scales, is that maybe a problem?

got my IDE working again, it just needed an update

formal igloo
#

which prints:

image.png
#

and here's the object I'm trying to overlap with:

somber nacelle
#

what layer is the object on and what layers are included in the layer mask?

formal igloo
#

in both cases, a layer mask called Collision Blocker:

#

ugh, ok even weirder, if while the game is playing, I move the target collider from being a child of the machine root to just being at the scene root (maintaining the exact same position and scale), the overlap works??

how do i set a skinned mesh renderers materials texture to no texture? is there a null texture i can reference?

somber nacelle
formal igloo
#

One of those works, the other does not!!!

somber nacelle
#

then it's something else and you may want to ask in #⚛️┃physics 🤷‍♂️
or you've actually got a compound collider where your collider is considered part of some parent on a different layer

formal igloo
#

yeah, I checked all of the parents, no rigidbodies or colliders on any of them. Will ask in physics

I am loading an object of one of my classes using Newtonsoft Deserialize and I am getting an error from my constructor for the object when I make this command? Does anyone know why this would be the case? How am I getting an error from the constructor when I am not using the new keyword?

leaden ice
somber nacelle
#

wanna share the error so we dont' have to try and guess what it is?

leaden ice
#

sharing your error would be nice

#

also the file that actually contains this constructor you're talking about

jaunty sleet
leaden ice
jaunty sleet
#

ok one sec

leaden ice
#

Also this isn't Java - highly recommend sticking to C# naming conventions. Methods should be PascalCase, and so should class names (e.g. levelBehavior)

jaunty sleet
leaden ice
jaunty sleet
#

I have been writing this code for a long time, I know the c# naming conventions now

leaden ice
#

notes is null

#

here's the thing

jaunty sleet
#

yeah but I don't understand why

#

I figured out that it is null

leaden ice
#

because the deserializer doesn't know what to put there

#

it just puts null

#

you need to provide a parameterless constructor if you're going to use a deserializer with this class

jaunty sleet
#

this wasn't an issue when I was using json utility, does that do it differently?

leaden ice
#

yes

jaunty sleet
#

ok

#

so can I provide a parameterless constructor only for use by the deserializer?

leaden ice
#

just make a parameterless constructor that does nothing

jaunty sleet
#

that works now, thanks

#

I had no idea it would call the constructor lol

leaden ice
#

how else would it create objects?

jaunty sleet
#

it did it somehow before without it 😂

If you're making a restful api call, why is it bad to do so with a coroutine instead of an async function?

leaden ice
lapis egret
#

So as far as I understand you can do both right? But I've seen it recommended to use async?

leaden ice
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

async has a cleaner api

#

but... either way is probably fine

lapis egret
#

I see. Yeah honestly async seems to have more overhead anyway. You can just yield return on the request and then pass the results to a payload in coroutine, is that correct?

leaden ice
#

Assuming you're using UnityWebRequest

lapis egret
#

Also it doesn't make you tag every calling function async... which is nice

#

Okay, thanks for your help

this line specifically
doubleAxis = max(xDistance + yDistance + zDistance - maximum - 2 * minimum, 0)

Trying to reduce CPU usage. I have 4 USB capture cards streaming from 4 cameras. I'm setting the texture of a rawImage to be the texture of a WebCamDevice. When all 4 are streaming at a capped 15 FPS, Unity is using around 60% of my CPU.

If I set the texture of my raw image to null, I see a quick drop in my CPU down to 30 some percent. But after a second or two it hops right back up to 50 something. Nothing else is happening in my scene. Just 4 raw images with a null texture displaying white.

# rotund burrow this line specifically doubleAxis = max(xDistance + yDistance + zDistance - ma... 
doubleAxis = max(
    xDistance + yDistance + zDistance // distances on every axis
    - maximum // the biggest number means the longest path, which is a single-axis movement,
    - 2 * minimum // the lowest number means the shortest path, which means a triple-axis movement
    , 0)

It could be described as: sort all the lengths, then check how much the middle length is longer than the shortest length.
E.g. if lengths are 10, 8 and 4, then it will return 4, because 8-4 is 4.
10+8+4-10-4-4=4
Longest length is canceled, shortest is canceled, the middle one is reduced by shortest.

Do you know any better elegant way to update layouts after resizing for example using content size filter?

await UniTask.Yield();
LayoutRebuilder.ForceRebuildLayoutImmediate(_root.GetComponent<RectTransform>());
await UniTask.Yield();

or

_root.GetComponent<LayoutGroup>().enabled = false;
await UniTask.Yield();
_root.GetComponent<LayoutGroup>().enabled = true;
#

They work but require one frame delay!

Hello there, what would be the equivalente of Vector3.sqrMagnitude using the mathemathics library? Im looking to replace all my vector3 values to float3 values, but I need some methods that are only available Vector3

In case that fails , you can click on regenerate project files too

I have been told to repost this in the general channel, so here goes nothing.
I've NEVER had this issue before, but I am currently facing the issue that my function stops halfway through. So, I currently have a method containing this piece of code, in the console "Test 1" is being logged, I can see in the editor that the loggedInText has been updated, but then it doesn't log "Test 2" and also doesn't call any methods after it. Since I've been using Unity for 6 years now, I suspect it has to do with the NuGetForUnity plugin I am using, as that is really the only new thing I have in my dev stack, which I haven't used before.

        Debug.Log("Test 1");

        loggedInText.text = $"Logged in as {TwitchIntegration.Broadcaster.DisplayName}!";

        Debug.Log("Test 2");

        mainMenuScreen.SetActive(true);

        Debug.Log("Test 3");

        authLoadingScreen.SetActive(false);

Ik this is more of a beginner question but the channel seems a little dead rn. My Character controller isnt colliding with anything in the scene. I was wondering how i can fix this

swift falcon

# strong forge Nope

Hmm, weird, does this happen only into that script or in every mono behaviour?

No they are two different things
