Guide to coding projectiles for your tower defense / RTS game

Hi folks,

I've got an article on my blog that covers how to code projectiles for RTS / tower defense purposes. These are the topics it covers:

• Why projectiles for tower defense / RTS games should home in on their targets.
• Creating the projectile script.
• Making the projectile home in on the target and creating effects
• Handling the edge cases of projectile homing
• Making the projectile arc as it travels towards its target
• Implementing the arc using graph equations

Check it out here and let me know if you have any feedback!

 

Nice contribution.
Thanks lots!
