i wants to make good breakables

howdy! what im trying to do is make an object that breaks when my character hits it, but i dont want destroy the object and instantiate a bunch of little ones, i want to have the object already made out of small pieces that are maybe children of an empty game object and when hit un-children themselves, add physics and fall on the opposite side of the player…or something like that, so if you could show me how to script that i would appreciate it.

Try searching in the unitystore. There are some good pack to cut objects in pieces
