Is there a way to track the position of a projectile fired from a gadget?

[RunicFire]

Hello Forums! Like in my other post about adjusting max health for specific players, I am asking for help in the same map. I have worked out a rough idea on paper on how to track health, but now I need to figure out how to remove health when hit by a gadget. I know the gadget type and rarity, and I can also find the player position. If I can then track the projectile position I can update the player’s health properly. If anyone knows anything, please share!

Not that I know of you can’t.
The only thing that I know of close to this is the Player fires gadget option on the lifecyle.
Give me a minute let me try something out.

Yeah, I saw that as well. I would like other opinions though, as we all may know something others don’t. Thanks for your answer though!

Detecting Projectile Movement

Hello. I recently got this idea for detecting projectile movement. Instead of detecting the player, we could find a way to detect the projectile movement, kind of like the way things are detected on sonar. One of the ways I think this would be possible is by creating props that are destructible. This would take a lot of memory considering that there are many ways a projectile could be launched. The Player Fires Gadget in a lifecycle could also be useful. So now, the ways this is useful. Firs…

I had a prototype of which found the angle of a projectile was fired. It could only do that after the projectile landed on an enemy sadly.

Here is a prototype of mine. The GIF is showing it working while the screenshot is the code. [Untitled video - Made with Clipchamp (4)] [image]

This is so close to what I need, but thanks to your prototype I have bad ideas with trigonometry. Thanks to you and that one geometry class I payed attention to in school!
