Question
hi, i’m trying to create a buckshot like projectile where, after some time has passed, it will break into smaller pieces and scatter, to do this i’m using a remote transform to place the projectiles at the edge of the bigger one, then i deactivate the collisions and physics processes until the bigger projectile is destroyed.
once that happens i wanted the smaller projectiles to activate their collisions and start moving forward
sceneTree:
result:
(small rhomboids on top are the smaller projectiles i want to shoot once the big one below dissapears)
however, for some reason once the projectile is shot the smaller ones appear somewhere else entirely
(that is where the (0,0) coordinates are for the main world scene)
i’ve set up the remote_path in the remoteTransform correctly so i don’t understand what the problem might be, is it with the transform of the remoteTransform itself?
i’ll leave the code for the projectiles here if needed
big one:
extends Projectile
@onready var time_to_shatter: Timer = $TimeToShatter
@onready var shards: Node = $Shards
@onready var sprite_2d: Sprite2D = $Sprite2D
@onready var collision_shape_2d: CollisionShape2D = $CollisionShape2D
func createProjectile() -> void:
damage = baseDamage + (potency/3.5)
rotate(atan2(direction.y,direction.x) + PI/2)
for shard: Projectile in shards.get_children():
shard.damage = damage/6
func projectileMovementLogic(delta: float) -> void:
if not time_to_shatter.is_stopped():
velocity = lerp(velocity,direction * speed,exp(-0.8 * delta))
func collidedWithEntity(_entityReference: Entity) -> void:
if not time_to_shatter.is_stopped():
queue_free()
func _on_time_to_shatter_timeout() -> void:
if not is_queued_for_deletion():
sprite_2d.hide()
collision_shape_2d.set_deferred("disabled",true)
for shard: Projectile in shards.get_children():
shard.spawnShard()
func _on_time_to_die_timeout() -> void:
if not is_queued_for_deletion():
queue_free()
small one:
extends Projectile
@onready var collision_shape_2d: CollisionShape2D = $CollisionShape2D
func createProjectile() -> void:
set_physics_process(false)
await get_tree().physics_frame
func projectileMovementLogic(delta: float) -> void:
velocity = lerp(velocity,direction * speed,exp(-0.8 * delta))
func collidedWithEntity(_entityReference: Entity) -> void:
queue_free()
func spawnShard() -> void:
set_physics_process(true)
collision_shape_2d.set_deferred("disabled",false)
visible = true
