Bullets collide with sphere collider (though is triggered)

Archived Forums Questions & Answers

I have added the following code to my “MatchineGun” under First Person Controller. Now the Problem is that when I shoot at my Enemy the bullet collide with the “Sphere Collider” of the enemy not with the actual mesh. Though “Sphere Collider” is triggered. The enemy need sphere collider to find the Player.

I am almost at the final stage of my first fps games. So, please someone help me. As I am absolutely new in unity so please suggest me something in details. Thanks in advance

var range = 100.0;
var fireRate = 0.05;
var force = 10.0;
var damage = 5.0;
var bulletsPerClip = 40;
var clips = 20;
var reloadTime = 0.5;
private var hitParticles : ParticleEmitter;
var muzzleFlash : Renderer;

private var bulletsLeft : int = 0;
private var nextFireTime = 0.0;
private var m_LastFrameShot = -1;

function Start () {
hitParticles = GetComponentInChildren(ParticleEmitter);

// We don't want to emit particles all the time, only when we hit something.
if (hitParticles)
	hitParticles.emit = false;
bulletsLeft = bulletsPerClip;

}

function LateUpdate() {
if (muzzleFlash) {
// We shot this frame, enable the muzzle flash
if (m_LastFrameShot == Time.frameCount) {
muzzleFlash.transform.localRotation = Quaternion.AngleAxis(Random.value * 360, Vector3.forward);
muzzleFlash.enabled = true;

		if (audio) {
			if (!audio.isPlaying)
				audio.Play();
			audio.loop = true;
		}
	} else {
	// We didn't, disable the muzzle flash
		muzzleFlash.enabled = false;
		enabled = false;
		
		// Play sound
		if (audio)
		{
			audio.loop = false;
		}
	}
}

}

function Fire () {
if (bulletsLeft == 0)
return;

// If there is more than one bullet between the last and this frame
// Reset the nextFireTime
if (Time.time - fireRate > nextFireTime)
	nextFireTime = Time.time - Time.deltaTime;

// Keep firing until we used up the fire time
while( nextFireTime < Time.time && bulletsLeft != 0) {
	FireOneShot();
	nextFireTime += fireRate;
}

}

function FireOneShot () {
var direction = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward);
var hit : RaycastHit;

// Did we hit anything?
if (Physics.Raycast (transform.position, direction, hit, range)) {
	// Apply a force to the rigidbody we hit
	if (hit.rigidbody)
		hit.rigidbody.AddForceAtPosition(force * direction, hit.point);
	
	// Place the particle system for spawing out of place where we hit the surface!
	// And spawn a couple of particles
	if (hitParticles) {
		hitParticles.transform.position = hit.point;
		hitParticles.transform.rotation = Quaternion.FromToRotation(Vector3.up, hit.normal);
		hitParticles.Emit();
	}

	// Send a damage message to the hit object			
	hit.collider.SendMessageUpwards("ApplyDamage", damage, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
}

bulletsLeft--;

// Register that we shot this frame,
// so that the LateUpdate function enabled the muzzleflash renderer for one frame
m_LastFrameShot = Time.frameCount;
enabled = true;

// Reload gun in reload Time		
if (bulletsLeft == 0)
	Reload();

}

function Reload () {

// Wait for reload time first - then add more bullets!
yield WaitForSeconds(reloadTime);

// We have a clip left reload
if (clips > 0) {
	clips--;
	bulletsLeft = bulletsPerClip;
}

}

function GetBulletsLeft ()
{
return bulletsLeft;
}

Please format the code properly so that it is readable.

You can use Layer-Based collision detection, that is explained here:
