Okay, this is how it is.
Since I’m not charging but rather looking for things to test myself with, I’m opening myself up to freelance work for (FREE)
I will tell you if i think i can do it or not beforehand, you don’t need to use the code and not obligated to anything. I just need some things to mess with.
ALL CODE is made in C#. Nothing else, sorry. I don’t know unityscript.
Small - medium complexity, large is welcome too but I don’t know how I’d be able to handle it.
I do NOT have pro version(Though, I have a spare PC that has it installed(legitimately with trial)).
The only thing is the code may at any time be available for the general public if I decide It’s a piece. It won’t be mentioned what project it’s in, whom it was sent to or anything similar.
I have the right to refuse as well
Thankyou.

A person on the forum asked about collision mass for a vehicle and was on the route of using sphere’s to represent his vehicle. I got the idea that if you created a editor window to change a piece of geometry to a skinned mass of sphere’s you could use that as a collision mass. I further went on to explain that you could then use this collision mass as a “skin” for collision deformation. (deform the collision skin and deform the mesh to match) to achieve better realism. I did not test the computational workload, but it was an interesting thought.
Task:
Part 1: Create a EditorWindow that would convert a mesh to a collider then shoot that collider with a series of spherical raycasts to get the shape. At each point you would figure the depth of the sphere and check to see if that location plus the radius of all the sphere’s would support a new collider. Once you have all of your colliders, destroy the MeshCollider, disable the mesh and parent all of the sphere colliders to it.
Part 2: Create a deformation system that will collect all of the incoming collision data and determine if any collision information was substantial enough to warrant deformation of the collision mass and geometry. (Done easily in the OnCollisionEnter and OnCollisionStay, testing the normal of the collision to the velocity of the vehicle) If that value is greater than a certain amount then you apply the deformation to the meshes attached to the object and the collision mass.
No, you don’t have to do it, but its something to chew on. lol
Ouch bigmisterB, that one sounds tough. Though I’ll put it on my list of things I hope to one day try out.
Bloodsin, I’ve done some random level randomization scripts. But they are mostly 2D and thus only two axis. Pretty easy, I would step into the 3D realm except I prefer 2D when working on my own things since I dont have to rely on having PRO for nicer effects.
Also, Costy. I have quite alot of scripts. Though this one is the one I’m in the process of rewriting(Thinking how to go about making it smoother, maybe with lerp?)
I try to line most of my code. With the new script I’m going to try add a doublejump feature(Like, allow players to jump to a maximum height before they fall and can only jump once again even after falling, but with the new jump it’s a strict downfall. Also disabling any acceleration midair.)
