Ballistic Aiming - Tower defense (preview)
🕑 Added 2024-06-15 23:22:46 +0000 UTCIn the next video, we'll be making a cannon tower and an arrow tower shoot projectiles at a moving target.
And by the end, we'll have our very own tower defense. With enemies moving along a path and trying to hit our crystal base HP.
We'll learn about:
Find the angle to shoot at the target
Predict the target movement
Move a cannon mesh to aim at targets
Make a arrows fly at targets
The arrows will rotate in the direction they are moving, and stick to the target for 3 seconds, before de-spawning.
The main focus of the video will be the aiming and the making of the towers.
At the very end, we'll make the enemies and the game logic for the tower defense.
But so that the video doesn't get too long and lose focus, I'm planning on making that section very brief, basically only showing the code and some light commentary.
It might still be a few days before I release the video. I still need to write what I'm going to say and edit the video according to that.
