How can i do for my Tower follow the Player??

I have a tower that i made on Blender
What i need is to the "tower's cannon" (in front of the window,see the picture)follow the player,the cannon rotate depend on the player positon,May i Use vector3.Distance something like this??
And i'm gonna make a projectile,the tower gonna shoot,but i need that the projectile try to follow the player too
Thanks in advance

 

A suggestion in code:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. Vector3 forward = (transform.position - _Target.transform.position).normalized;
3. transform.rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(forward, Vector3.up);
4.  

Where "_Target" is a variable containing the player. For the projectile, I'd suggest adding the following:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. (Code as above)
3. transform.position += forward * (speed * Time.deltaTime);
4.  

Or Time.fixedDeltaTime if your code is in the FixedUpdate() function instead of the Update() function. If you're using a RigidBody, the two lines become:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. rigidbody.rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(forward, Vector3.up);
3. rigidbody.MovePosition(rigidbody.position + forward * (speed * Time.deltaTime);
4.  

Hopefully that helps.

 

i'll check it Thanks

 

i was actually just doing the same thing.
here's the code i ended up using, it has all the code for audio and spawning of the bullet as well.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. public class GuardTower : MonoBehaviour {
3.     public Rigidbody bullet;
4.     private Vector3 spawnSpot;
5.     private Quaternion spawnrot;
6.     public AudioClip riffleshoot;
7.     float delay = 5.0f;
8.     GameObject FindClosestEnemy() {
9.                 GameObject[] gos;
10.                 gos = GameObject.FindGameObjectsWithTag ("Enemy");
11.                 GameObject closest = null;
12.                 float distance = Mathf.Infinity;
13.                 Vector3 position = transform.position;
14.                 foreach (GameObject go in gos) {
15.                         Vector3 diff = go.transform.position - position;
16.                         float curDistance = diff.sqrMagnitude;
17.                         if (curDistance < distance) {
18.                                 closest = go;
19.                                 distance = curDistance;
20.                         }
21.                 }
22.                 return closest;
23.         }
24.     float distance;
25.  
26.  
27.     // Use this for initialization
28.     void Start () {
29.         spawnSpot = this.transform.position;
30.         spawnrot = this.transform.rotation;
31.         delay = 0;
32.    
33.     }
34.    
35.     // Update is called once per frame
36.     void Update () {
37.         this.transform.LookAt (FindClosestEnemy().transform.position);
38.         spawnSpot = this.transform.position;
39.         spawnrot = this.transform.rotation;
40.         delay -= 1 * Time.deltaTime;
41.         distance = Vector3.Distance (transform.position, FindClosestEnemy ().transform.position);
42.         if (distance <= 10.0f)
43.         {//Debug.Log ("oh S*** oh S*** OH S***");
44.             if (delay <= 0)
45.             {
46.  
47.                 GameObject cubeSpawn = (GameObject)Instantiate (bullet, spawnSpot, spawnrot );
48.                 audio.clip = riffleshoot;
49.                 audio.Play ();
50.                 delay = 5.0f;
51.             }
52.         }
53.    
54.     }
55. }

 

my projectiles do not follow player thought, mine is a manned tower with a guy shooting a riffle, id assume you could add the findclosestenemy to your projectile to make that work. also, if anyone knows, is their a way to limit the rotation? obviously you dont want your tower aiming straight down.

 

thank you
