How to get local 3D projectile collision working consistently?

If you don’t want to see them, I would use a RayCast3D

Raycasting, in gaming terms, is called hitscan. I’m after solid physical objects shot from a weapon. So, I’ll give RigidBodies a shot.

Also, I was worried about physics because I wanted client predicted projectile for the client’s own projectiles. Since Jolt’s physics aren’t deterministic, the client own projectile and server’s version of that projectile could be different. But I think I’m making that a WAY bigger deal than it really is.

Edit:

I also just found this too:

Should projectiles be `Area2D` or `RigidBody2D`?

depends how you want it, rigidbody will need a bit more code to set it right, than just straight changing the position, but i believe with rigidbody2d the collider wont skip a wall if it went too quick example with bullet.
