Fireball Throw – Unity Tutorial

For this Unity tutorial, I will show you how to create a basic fireball throw mechanic. This mechanic can be used for most projectiles in your games. Projectiles are an important feature of almost all video games. Fireballs projectiles can be found in games like Super Mario, Skyrim, and World of Warcraft

Throw.cs

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class Throw : MonoBehaviour
{
    Rigidbody myRB;

    [SerializeField] float throwSpeed;

    [SerializeField] GameObject Burst;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
        myRB = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
        myRB.velocity = transform.forward * throwSpeed;
    }

    private void OnCollisionEnter(Collision collision)
    {
        Instantiate(Burst, transform.position, transform.rotation);
        // Add interactions here

        if(collision.transform.tag == "Enemy")
        {
            // get comp for enemy script
            // enemy - damage from health
        }

        Destroy(this.gameObject);
    }

}

Explosion.cs

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class Explosion : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField] float destroyTime;

    // Start is called before the first frame update
    void Start()
    {
        Destroy(this.gameObject, destroyTime);
    }
}

        {
                    ThrowAttack();
          }
    }

    }
