Testing RequiredDec 10, 2022

Worked on the game more last night.

I tweaked the car's settings for a more responsive. Something between Twisted Metal 2 and Vigilante 8.

I also started work on adding homing capabilities to rigidbody projectiles. It took forever to understand why projectile would rotate and a local to world forward force was being applied.

Turns out it was just a little too much force for its mass and zero drag. Figuring out that and the right forward direction fixed it.

Now the problem is the homing projectile will orbit the target when it gets close and at the right (wrong?) angle.

I need to increase the turn speed or decrease the velocity as it approaches the target it prevent this. Or just turn off homing at a certain close distance range.

Some gameplay footage of homing missile/projectile. They work fairly well but could still be improved.
