Meele Script

I'm looking for a good way to write a meele script. For now I have something like that

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class MyHand : MonoBehaviour {
5.  
6.     float Distance;
7.     RaycastHit hit;
8.    
9.     void Update () {
10.         if (Input.GetButton("Fire1")) {
11.             audio.Play();
12.             Vector3 forward = transform.TransformDirection (Vector3.forward);
13.             Distance = hit.distance;
14.             if (Distance <= 2) {
15.                 hit.transform.SendMessage("ApplyDamage", 50, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
16.             }
17.         }
18.     }
19.  
20. }
21.  

but it's pointing only at one point which is kinda inconvenient. Especially if the player swings his fist all across the whole screen^^

 

I suggest you go watch a tutorial on raycasts. You can also watch brackeys survival game tutorial, it should help quiet abit.

 

That's exactly what I'm trying not to use and hat's why I asked if there is another way to do it.

 

Look at Physics.Overlapsphere and Vector3.Angle

Using these you can get all things hit within an arc. Basically doing this:
