It would end up being sqrt 2 2 when you

sorry i had to go somewhere can i make this a thread?

the vector is already normalized in another script so i dont think that would help

The original message seems to be gone, so maybe add context if you expect an answer.

Does using diagonal vectors work though?

[iron comet]

sorry im kind of a beginner, what are diagonal vectors, is it just Vector2.(1, 1)

[crimson anchor]

I would personally use Vector2(1,1).normalized for up-right diagonal

But technically it would be Vector2(1,1)* Mathf.Sqrt(2)/2

Or Vector2(Mathf.Sqrt(2)/2, Mathf.Sqrt(2)/2)

Basically, if you want diagonals, you cant use Vector2.up, .right, etc

[iron comet]

ok, the thing is I'm already normalizing the vectors and the problem is that the arrows aren't being spawned at the right place but the velocity they are launched at is correct

i could show you a video of how the cardinal directions work and how the diagonal directions (don't) work and tell you what i want to happen

as you can see it works properly for the cardinal directions but spawns them all in the same place for the diagonal directions i want it to be just like the cardinal directions just rotated, how could i do that with code?

[crimson anchor]

Hmm

[crimson anchor]

So your trouble isnt with the angle themselves, but the random spread?

How do you determine the position and rotation you spawn the arrows in?

[iron comet]

yes i have a function called FindOffsetAxis(float offset, Vector2 facingDirection) if the player is facing in a cardinal direction then it returns a Vector2 with the y and x axis flipped( the y value becomes the x value and vice versa) and multiplies them both by the offset which is the degree of randomness

ill send you a paste myst of the code
