SurfaceBulletPhysicsAmmoEffect MonoBehaviour
Overview
The SurfaceBulletPhysicsAmmoEffect module allows bullets to ricochet and penetrate objects based on the surface. This ammo effect is used alongside another effect to apply damage and visual elements. Since both ricochets and penetrations reduce the speed of the resulting projectile, this effect works well when paired with the AdvancedBulletAmmoEffect which allows damage to fall-off with speed.
The penetration and ricochet settings for each surface are specified using a SurfaceBulletPhysicsInfo scriptable object.
This module only works with projectile based shooters.

Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Damage Type | DamageType | The type of damage the weapon should do with this ammo (does nothing for this effect). |
| Hit Effect | BaseAmmoEffect | The effect of the ammo when it hits something. |
| Surface Physics | SurfaceBulletPhysicsInfo | The per-surface bullet physics info |
| Layers | [LayerMask][unity-layers] | The layers bullets will collide with. |
| Normal Vs Deflection | Float | A blending value based on ricocheting directly along the hit normal (0) vs the reflection of the inbound ray (1). |
| Max Ricochet Scatter | Float | Randomises the deflected bullet direction within this cone angle, dependent on surface settings. |
| Max Penetration Deflect | Float | Randomises the penetrating bullet direction within this cone angle, dependent on surface settings. |
| Exit Effect Size | Float | Uses the surface system to show a bullet hit effect on exit. Set this to zero if you don't want it to happen. |
| Recursive | Boolean | Should the bullet keep ricocheting / penetrating after the first time until it has slowed or travelled far enough. |
| Projectile Prefab | PooledObject | The projectile to spawn. |
| Gravity | Float | The gravity for the projectile. |
