How to do bullet spread in 2D?

Questions & Answers

I need help with bullet spread in a top down 2d game

My current code, located in a script that recieves an input from the player is:

void Shoot()

{

Quaternion spread = firePoint.rotation * Quaternion.Euler(0,0, Random.Range(-100f, 101f)); GameObject bullet = Instantiate(bulletPrefab, firePoint.position, spread);

Rigidbody2D rb = bullet.GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();

rb.AddForce(transform.up * bulletForce, ForceMode2D.Impulse);

}

However, this does not seem to have any effect

Any idea why?

Don’t you want to be adding the forcing in the bullet.transform.up direction rather than just transform.up?
