Laser Tracking
Carpoon » Devlog
I wanted to update how the laser tracks the player on Volcarnage Island because before, it used a lerp and didn't really encourage the player to changing directions, just to outrun it. Eventually I came up with the idea that it accelerates quickly, but turns slowly.
I added lines in here to show how when the laser passes the perpendicular plane of the player, it slows down to regroup. Still needs some work but the laser now closer to how I originally envisioned it.
