Hello fellow traveler, i am trying to shoot a ball and be able to bounce of wall and keep going like in Puzzle Bubble/Pool games.
My shooting code, **Cannon.cs**:
void Update () {
// Raycast code
if( fireRate == 0)
{
if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
{
Shoot();
}
}
else
{
if (Input.GetButton("Fire1") && Time.time> timeToFire)
{
timeToFire = Time.time + 1 / fireRate;
Shoot();
}
}
}
//Raycast code
void Shoot()
{
Vector2 mousePosition = new Vector2(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition).x, Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition).y);
Vector2 firePointPosition = new Vector2(bullet.position.x, bullet.position.y);
Vector2 val = mousePosition - firePointPosition;
RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast(firePointPosition, val, 100, notToHit);
Effect();
Debug.DrawLine(firePointPosition, (mousePosition-firePointPosition)*100, Color.cyan);
if(hit.collider != null)
{
Debug.DrawLine(firePointPosition, hit.point, Color.red);
//Debug.Log("We hit " + hit.collider.name);
if(hit.collider.GetComponent<BoxInteraction>() != null)
{
hit.collider.GetComponent<BoxInteraction>().beenHit();
}
}
}
With the current code i am able to hit the boxes, i use the Debug.DrawLine for testing, check what i'm hitting and whatnot.
Now i am stuck at how i can simulate shooting 1 ball at a time and it being able to bounce of the wall and creating an aim line so i can know where it will hit before shooting like in Pool games.

Can it be done using Raycast? If yes, how?
Any nudge in the right direction its very much appreciated.
