Bullet going in direction of moving object

Questions & Answers
1

So i have a script in C# for firing bullets and moving object tagged as “Target” from one side to another. I can’t figure out how to change it so when i click, the bullets go to in my Target direction. I don’t want bullet to follow this obejct. Just fire where it was when i clicked mouse button. I’m pretty newbie in coding.

using UnityEngine;

using System.Collections;

public class Shooting : MonoBehaviour
	
{
	
	public Rigidbody2D projectile;
	
	public float speed = 20;

	Transform Target;

	void start() {		

		GameObject target_go = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Target");



		}

	void Update ()
		
	{


		
		if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
			
		{

			
			Rigidbody2D instantiatedProjectile = Instantiate(projectile,transform.position,transform.rotation)as Rigidbody2D;
			
			instantiatedProjectile.velocity = transform.TransformDirection(new Vector3(0, 0,speed));
			
		}
		
	}
	
}

I made two significant changes here. First take a look how I initialized ‘target’ in Start(). Note this change will cause a null reference exception if a game object with a name of “Target” does not exist in the scene. If that is a possibility, you need to check the result of the GameObject.Find() before getting the transform. Second, take a look at how I calculated the velocity.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Shooting : MonoBehaviour
{
	public Rigidbody2D projectile;
	public float speed = 20;
	Transform target;
	
	void start() {     
		target = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Target").transform;
	}
	
	void Update()
	{
		if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
		{
			Rigidbody2D instantiatedProjectile = Instantiate(projectile,transform.position,transform.rotation)as Rigidbody2D;
			instantiatedProjectile.velocity = (target.position - transform.position).normalized * speed;
		}
	}
}
