Artillery shell trajectory

[Botix_s (Pillow)]

I’m trying to make artillery and make the shell trajectory like this. Is there any way I could do it on a script or more about the built-in physics?

Modeling a projectile's motion

This guide was originally written for scriptinghelpers. The original can be found here. As a somewhat active member of the Scripting Helpers discord one of the most common questions I see is how to have a projectile travel an arc. Most people want to know how to do this for things like basketballs or cannon balls and so forth. Since this is such a popular question I thought it would be worth writing a blog post on it and talking about a few other things we can extend from our findings. Deri…

you wan’t to make artilery projectile goes that trajectory, and then explodes when near end yea? if yes you can use bezier curves, it uses interpolation to make a efect to make curve, you can modify it by changing position ect.

I don’t know how to use bezier curves, perhaps send a link to the page of it?

[0786ideal (ideal)]

there was a page on dev hub, but now you have there isn’t, you can make beziers by lerping two vectors at the same time, one is from start to center, another from center to end, if i’m wrong correct me

They used to have an article in the docs but have moved it (rather frustratingly).
I found it here though:

Bézier Curves

The explanations can be a bit confusing I find, but there are a few other devforum posts which explain it better than I would.

How do I tween along a curve? A look at Bézier curves

Introduction Ever since I was introduced to curves (or arcs, rather), like in a well-made bow weapon where you can see the arc and end destination of the projectile, or missiles that came from rockets, I was always interested in learning how it works, but always thought of it as super complicated. After years of casually wondering but never diving deep, I saw someone mention Bézier curves. I was bored, so I got right into it. It seemed complicated at first, but it really wasn’t. How do they wor…
