Hi Guys,
I’ve written a simple flick app using code suggestions found on the forums - but it really does not feel fluid.
What I’m really trying to do is have a very fluid drag/release ability that after you release the dragged item continues to follow it’s velocity (with some drag applied to it to slow it down overtime).
I’m also hoping to do this in a 2d game. Basically picture a big board that you can drag ‘puck’ shaped items around and when you release - they continue to keep velocity based on the released velocity.
Anyhow - When I get home I’ll post some code that I have - at the moment I attempt to apply a force to the gameobjects - but something is broken and they just shoot out of view.
Any help is Greatly appreciated.
Here is what I’m currently using. It works somewhat well and adjusting the mass (as suggested) does help. anyone have any good advice to make this work fluid - it’s somewhat chunky at the moment and the ball may roll randomly at times.
