Creating a Vector3 direction calculated from point A to point B

[AtomicLugia]

Heyho, I’m working on a explosion and I’m trying to make it so that it doesn’t hurt through solid walls. I do this with Raycasting. However, I don’t know how to create a direction from the explosion’s origin facing towards the position of the object inside it’s explosion range, without having to rotate the explosion object itself. There’s a unit called “Vector 3 - Rotate Towards” which seems that what I needed but why are there two other values, these max deltas? This overwhelms me to be honest. Any quick solution?

Here’s a look at my spaghetti of a flow machine for the explosion:

Unity - Manual: Direction and Distance from One Object to Another

Direction and Distance from One Object to Another

If one point in space is subtracted from another, then the result is a vector that “points” from one object to the other:

// Gets a vector that points from the player’s position to the target’s.
var heading = target.position - player.position;

As well as pointing in the direction of the target object, this vector’s magnitude is equal to the distance between the two positions. It is common to need a normalized vector giving the direction to the target and also the distance to the target (say for directing a projectile). The distance between the objects is equal to the magnitude of the heading vector and this vector can be normalized by dividing it by its magnitude:-

var distance = heading.magnitude;
var direction = heading / distance; // This is now the normalized direction.
