new pics in OP nice
Gravity Cat:
I might switch from projectiles to raycasting. No, shut up and read, everything.

BEFORE you post.

Projectiles have limited speed (200 units per second). This gives the advantage of non-instant-hits on long distances, but for really big distances it is just too slow. Raycasts are instant hit, making them overpowered on high distances. Projectiles can be gravity-affected, raycasts not. Wind affection is impossible for both. What I have in mind is mixing both together. The good things about it, I can add wind and gravity affection, as well as other stuff like spin drift* (Yes I know, I take it a bit too far :D). And it won't get overpowered over long distances.

*Spin drift: The rotation of spinning projectiles causes them to drift off to the side.

Woho new pictures!

;P

Seems like a good idea. I know how you really wanted wind on the projectiles/raycasts. Does this mean when sniping as a example you would have to aim a bit to the side?

Off Topic: Frank Sinatra for the loving win!

Yes. Or slightly up/down when you have head/tailwinds :P
