I decided to take a break from my Archviz scenes and make my first little Unity game given all the talk about the iPhone lately.
The game is a 3DSlidePuzzle http://www.livingartz.com/unity/3DSlidePuzzle2.html
I am a designer not a coder so the only script from me is a simple Retrict to “0” on the Y-axis script to stop the cubes bouncing out of the blue base.
I have a few issues with this game.
-
I have to make the Box Colliders on the white cubes larger than the cubes to prevent the cubes cutting through each other before colliding. See attached image.
-
If you drag a cube hard enough towards another cube against the sides it will engulf the next cube.
-
The cubes cut through the side of the blue base which has a Mesh Collider applied to it.
Each cube has a Box Collider, RigiBody and RetsrictToYaxis script.
The Main Camera has a DragRigidBody script applied to it.
By placing Planes with Box Colliders in from the sides of the Blue base I can make the cubes stop from cutting through the blue base, but I would have thought I should not need to resort to this. The game without the Planes http://www.livingartz.com/unity/3DSlidePuzzle.html By doing this it does resolve issues 1 and 3 above.
If anyone has any ideas about fixing the above issues I would appreciate it.
Once I prove out the interactivity I will replace the models with cubes that share one textured image that I would like the player to be able to swap out with their own image if that is within the ability of Unity to do so. Then add a button to scramble up the cubes for the start of each game.
