Resolved About how to avoid destruction. FPS and Bullets

Hello everyone!

I have a question/problem with the following question.

I have created a First Person Shooter and I have created the shooting action. It works perfectly, the bullet comes out of the gun barrel but when I shoot and walk at the same time, the bullet is destroyed because it touches the gun.

How can I stop the bullet from being destroyed by touching the gun or the player effectively?

In FirePoint I create the bullet.

PlayerController.cs //Player Shoot

Code (CSharp):

1.      
2. //Handle Shooting
3.         if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
4.         {
5.             RaycastHit hit;
6.             if(Physics.Raycast(camTrans.position, camTrans.forward, out hit, 50f))
7.             {
8.                 if (Vector3.Distance(camTrans.position, hit.point) > 2f)
9.                 {
10.                     firePoint.LookAt(hit.point);
11.                 }
12.             }
13.             else
14.             {
15.                 firePoint.LookAt(camTrans.position + (camTrans.forward * 30f));
16.             }
17.  
18.             Instantiate(bullet, firePoint.position, firePoint.rotation);
19.         }
20.  

BulletController.cs //Bullet Life

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
3.     {
4.         if(other.gameObject.tag == "Enemy")
5.         {
6.             Destroy(other.gameObject);
7.         }
8.  
9.         Destroy(gameObject);
10.         Instantiate(impactEffect, transform.position + (transform.forward * (-moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime)), transform.rotation);
11.     }
12.  

 

Layers and the physics collision matrix!

The difference between Layers vs LayerMasks:

Thank you for your response!

Thank you for your response

In the end what I did was to remove the Collider from the 'gun'. I have done it this way because it is to create a simple game.

Although I've seen your post about Layer and LayerMask to study it for other projects.

Thank you very much!

 

This is actually very smart because it does keep things much simpler.

Usually you don't want things bumping into the gun specifically.

Glad to hear you're back on track!
