Bullet Launcher Script

Question

t$$anonymous$$s is my script i got from unity tutorials, but for some reason on my multiplayer game it rotates downward and doesn't shoot straight. the bullets start working normal then go downward, then it shoots alot downward and only a few straight

 var projectile : Rigidbody;

var speed = 20; function Update() { if( Input.GetButtonDown( "Fire1" ) ) { var instantiatedProjectile : Rigidbody = Instantiate( projectile, transform.position, transform.rotation ); instantiatedProjectile.velocity = transform.TransformDirection( Vector3( 0, 0, speed ) ); Physics.IgnoreCollision( instantiatedProjectile. collider, transform.root.collider ); } }

If you want your bullet to go to infinity, go to the bullet prefab and set the Angular Drag to 0. So it will not slow down.

For better velocity, put a mass like 0.2, less mass, more speed.

T$$anonymous$$s can work ;)

For more informations of Angular Drag:

I know this question is like ... 3 weeks old ... but i gotta say this. Totaly wrong! Mass only affects collisions... for example when an object with high mass hits something with low mass then the low-mass object is going to be pushed away ... and angular drag ... that should be set to something high tbh ... because you don't want your bullets to rotate... The very docs that you pointed at confirm this ... and contrary to what your instinct may tell you ... Unity3D mass doesn't affect speed/gravity AT ALL!
