can you send picture of your script?

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:44 PM

#

k

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:44 PM

#

where you declare hitPoint

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:45 PM

#

 if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1))
            if (Physics.Raycast(transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward), out hit, Mathf.Infinity, layerMask))
            {
                Debug.DrawRay(transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward) * hit.distance, Color.yellow);
                Debug.Log("Did Hit");
                hitPoint = hit.point;
                Debug.Log(hitPoint);
                Vector3.MoveTowards(player.transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(player, hitPoint, step));


            }
            else
            {
                Debug.DrawRay(transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward) * 1000, Color.white);
                Debug.Log("Did not Hit");
            }```

thx

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:46 PM

#

wait

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:46 PM

#

Vector3.MoveTowards(player.transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(player, hitPoint, step));

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:46 PM

#

that doesnt look right

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:46 PM

#

this line seems weird

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:46 PM

#

Vector3.MoveTowards(

#

you have to get rid of that

#

also you're only calling that line IF the player clicked mouse button AND if the raycast hit

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:48 PM

#

yes

#

Vector3.MoveTowards(player.transform.position = player, hitPoint, step);

#

is that right?

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:48 PM

#

so you have to put that line outside of the if statements into something like Update or FixedUpdate

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:48 PM

#

ok

#

wait

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:48 PM

#

rotund dragon Vector3.MoveTowards(player.transform.position = player, hitPoint, step);

player.transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(player.transform.position, hitPoint, step));

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:48 PM

#

what do i have to do?

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:49 PM

#

so change that weird line into

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:49 PM

#

queen veldt `player.transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(player.transform.position, hitP...

this

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:49 PM

#

yeah i did

#

should i try it?

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:49 PM

#

and then move that line after the if/else statement

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:49 PM

#

ok

#

not moving

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:51 PM

#

can you send your update/fixedupdate functions?

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:51 PM

#

ok

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:51 PM

#

with line numbers, so it's easier to talk

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

Screen_Shot_2021-10-03_at_4.52.23_PM.jpg

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

wait you already have it kinda written

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

?

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

so put player.transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(player.transform.position, hitPoint, step)); this line right after line 19

#

so on line 20

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:53 PM

#

ok

#

in that else category?

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:54 PM

#

yes

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:54 PM

#

ok

#

but thats not part of the code i'm working on

#

23 - 40 is the code i'm using

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:56 PM

#

ik but when you use the grapple hook, grappling.IsGrappling() return true, right?

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:56 PM

#

that's part of the other grappling hook

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:57 PM

#

queen veldt ik but when you use the grapple hook, grappling.IsGrappling() return true, right...

yes

#

that's a different function though

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:57 PM

#

the Vector3.movetowards() will only call ONCE, when the player clicks the button

#

which will only move the player a fraction of a unit

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:57 PM

#

but thats a different function

#

line 23- 40 is the function i'm working on

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:58 PM

#

So instead, we want to move the player towards the point of grapple, EVERY FRAME that the player uses the grappling hook

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:58 PM

#

yes

#

but

#

ohhh lemme try something

#

so this is the code i am using:

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 10:59 PM

#

Ye I also had that weird problem

#

try it without code tags

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 10:59 PM

#

Screen_Shot_2021-10-03_at_4.59.42_PM.jpg

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

ok

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

that is the code for what i'm doing

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

why are lines 33&34 the same?

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

i'm not sure

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

rotund dragon that is the code for what i'm doing

ok

#

but line 33 will only get called once

#

which kinda doesn't work

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

well i guess if it moves to the location until you stop holding rmb, then it will be fine

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

yes

#

that's what it does rn (I think)

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 11:02 PM

#

it only does it once though

queen veldt Oct 3, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

Instead of Input.GetMouseButtonDown use Input.GetMouseButton(1)

rotund dragon Oct 3, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

ahhhh

#

well it's working now

#

i just need to crank up the speed

#

thanks for the help

#

should work now

#

wait

#

it's not moving right

#

it's moving the wrong direction

#

well that feature isn't really needed, i'll just note it out and leave it for now
