Re: Aerial Assist 3D Game Simulation
 

I'm working on my own simulation with Unity in the free version. I was wondering how you got the ball to shoot so accurately. I made the ball rotate with my robot but that still misfires sometimes. Was the shooting done through animation, or was it some specific code? Also did you use JavaScript, c# or Boo just for my curiosity.

Hi Vlad,
I used C#. My project is posted at https://github.com/rcahoon/AerialAssistSim. Feel free to use as much of it as you want.

I had the robots carry the balls using kinematics (updated transform.position on every frame) but the shooting was done using the physics engine - I added an impulse-type force. Check out https://github.com/rcahoon/AerialAss...ts/Launcher.cs

Let me know if you have any more questions

Thank you very much.

Huge feature, but somehow allow importing custom CAD files.

Re: Aerial Assist 3D Game Simulation
 

Did you use the launcher script on the blue ball, or did you somehow use it on the robot? What I did was put my launch script on the blue ball and moved it with the bot and then shot by using addrelativeforce to te ball.

Re: Aerial Assist 3D Game Simulation
 

I attached the launcher script to the robot because that made made more semantic sense to me, but I don't think it makes a lot of difference. In either case, I think you want AddForce rather than AddRelativeForce because the direction of the force on the ball is dictated by the orientation of the robot, not the orientation of the ball.

Hmm, maybe I'll fork this and add swerve drive robots.
I already made a 2D swerve game that I can borrow code from.

Swerve 4 lyfe bro. If you can do this, that would be amazing.

Have you made one for Recycle Rush?

Lol

Someone made this

Re: Aerial Assist 3D Game Simulation
 

Do you have a link to it?

Re: Aerial Assist 3D Game Simulation
 

The Unity Web Player isn't working on it.

Works in IE, but not chrome.
No idea why... but I had heard something about unity not working in chrome anymore or something like that. :confused:
