DemoGun #

Mode #

• Use Ballistics: On = ballistic arc; Off = straight (hitscan) ray of comparable range.

Aiming #

• Use Camera: Aim at screen center using the assigned Camera.
• Face Screen Center: Rotates the gun to the aim direction each shot/update.
• Camera: Optional; defaults to Camera.main.
• Aim Max Distance: Fallback distance for the screen-center ray when nothing is hit.

Ballistics #

• Firepoint: Muzzle transform; shot starts here and uses its forward.
• Fire Rate: Seconds between shots when holding Fire1.
• Muzzle Velocity: Initial speed for ballistic flight and timing for straight rays.
• Gravity: Gravity vector applied to the ballistic arc
• Max Time: Max simulated time-of-flight. Also used as a fallback duration.
• Time Step: Simulation step size; smaller is more precise, larger is faster.

Collision #

• Layers: Physics layers to test.
• Query Trigger Interaction: Include, Ignore, or Collide with triggers.
• Self Root: Root transform to ignore (prevents hitting your own weapon/rig).

Tracer #

• Tracer: Tracer scene instance or prefab.
• Tracer Width: LineRenderer width.
• Tracer Default Length: On miss, straight tail length for visibility.
• Tracer Trail Duration: Duration of the visible “tail” following the head
  TIP (<= 0 leaves Tracer defaults).

Pooling (used when Tracer is a prefab) #

• Auto Pool Tracers: Enable simple built-in pooling.
• Pool Warmup: Instances precreated on first use.
• Pool Max Size: Capacity of the pool.
• Pool Can Grow: Allow extra instantiation past capacity during bursts.
• Pool Parent: Optional parent for pooled objects.
• Pool Return Padding: Extra seconds after a tracer’s animation to return it.

Tracer #

Lifetime #

• Visible Time: Default visibility if no duration provided.
• Destroy: If true, the tracer GameObject is destroyed at end; otherwise it is cleared for reuse.

Trailing #

• Trail Enabled: Show only a short trailing segment that follows the head.
• Trail Duration: Duration (seconds) of the visible tail segment.
• Stop At Impact: End immediately when head reaches impact, avoiding any “through-surface” look.
• Impact Hold: Optional small hold before clearing at impact.

Rendering #

• Force World Space: Ensure LineRenderer uses world space (recommended).
• End Skin: Retract head slightly from the final hit point to avoid visual penetration.
• Corner/Cap Vertices, Alignment: Standard LineRenderer styling.
