Bomberman Bombs using OverlapSphere(1st Person)

[MadJohny]

Hi, I want to make a bomb explosion for a fps bomberman, I mean, there are obstacles in the map, and those obstacles block other obstacles, have a scheme of what I mean

as you can see on the image the bomb uses a overlap sphere, I want to raycast to all objects inside of it tagged as “brick” or “player” (Quite easy to understand which one is which I guess), basically you can see on this video from SuperBossGames: Intruder Series 002 Concussion Grenades - YouTube, put the video at 1:30. So from that video is really easy to understand what I want, in the image I did I putted attention signal in one of the brick boxes because the raycast hits the other brick box instead, so that box shouldn’t be affeced, just like the grenade from the video, if the raycast hits another object instead, you aren’t affected.

Also you can see how is my script at the moment:

 #pragma strict

var power : float = 100;
var damage : int = 1;
 
var radius : float = 3;
var bombFuseLength : float = 3;
private var startTime : float;
private var actualTime : float;
 
function Start ()
{
    startTime = Time.time;
}
 

function Update ()

{

actualTime = Time.time - startTime;


if (actualTime > bombFuseLength)
{
    Explode();
}

}

function Explode ()
{            
    GameObject.Find("First Person Controller").GetComponent(Player).bombs +=1;
          
var colliders : Collider[] = Physics.OverlapSphere (transform.position, radius);
 for (var hit : Collider in colliders) {
    if (!hit)
        continue;
   
    if (hit.rigidbody)
        hit.rigidbody.AddExplosionForce(power, transform.position, radius, 3.0);

        Destroy (gameObject);
}

}

function OnDrawGizmos ()
{
    Gizmos.color = Color(1,1,1,0.5);
    Gizmos.DrawSphere (transform.position, radius);
}

it got kinda deformed when I putted it into unity awsers but it’s readable and I think you can understand what I want to do.
thanks in advance.

edit: Ok I looked at my script and I se I already have a little thing for that ( this script was made by a friend and it was some time ago), but I have no ideia on how to use it to do what I want, by the way, please tell me how to debug a ray is it on OnDrawGizmos also? I think it would be very helpful to see what will happen

This is a much better asked question. I can immediately see what you want, and having the source tells me how to give you the answer.

If you look at the video, they don’t simply test that the single position of the object is exposed, they test all eight corners of the bounding box around the object to see if any part of the object exposed. I rewrote the code I gave you earlier to Unityscript. The function Blocked now returns a value of 0 to 8 where 0 is completely blocked and 8 is a fully exposed object. Later you may want to vary either what you mean by exposed or how much something is damaged by how much it is exposed. The value 0-8 will give you a basis for making that change. Since I don’t have your project, this is untested. So if it does not work (or only partly works), let me know how it does not work. I added Debug.Line() statements to show the Linecasts for 20 seconds, so you should be able to see what the code is trying to do.

#pragma strict
 
var power : float = 100;
var damage : int = 1;
 
var radius : float = 3;
var bombFuseLength : float = 3;
private var startTime : float;
private var actualTime : float;
 
function Start ()
{
    startTime = Time.time;
}
 
 
function Update ()
{

actualTime = Time.time - startTime;
 
 
if (actualTime > bombFuseLength)
{
    Explode();
}
}

function Explode ()
{            
    GameObject.Find("First Person Controller").GetComponent(Player).bombs +=1;
 
var colliders : Collider[] = Physics.OverlapSphere (transform.position, radius);
 for (var hit : Collider in colliders) {
    if (Blocked(hit) != 0)
        continue;
 
    if (hit.rigidbody)
        hit.rigidbody.AddExplosionForce(power, transform.position, radius, 3.0);
 
        Destroy (gameObject);
}
}

function OnDrawGizmos ()
{
    Gizmos.color = Color(1,1,1,0.5);
    Gizmos.DrawSphere (transform.position, radius);
}
