PatternBallisticShooter MonoBehaviour
Overview
The PatternBallisticShooter module instantly fires in a preset pattern. The pattern is defined in 2D with a max distance of 1m from the origin on each axis. The distance setting specifies how far from the firearm's muzzle the full pattern size is achieved.
Pattern Editor
The pattern editor allows you to specify the gunshot pattern. The +, - and move buttons switch the editor mode. In + mode, clicking will add a new point. In - mode, clicking will remove the clicked point. In move mode, you can select a point by clicking it, and move a point by click-dragging it. The editor also has the following controls:
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Copy To JSON | Copy all points to the clipboard in JSON format. You can paste this to any text editor to make changes. |
| Paste From JSON | If the clipboard contains valid JSON, replace all the points with those on the clipboard. |
| Clear Points | Remove all points from the pattern. |
| Position | The position of the selected point (clamped to a -1 to 1 range on each axis). |
| Template | Load a background image to use as a template for placing points. |
