Vehicle

• Vehicle is a system that drives Player's mechanic. Examples :

  • SpringBoots

  • Monkey

  • etc.

Vehicle Prefabs

• Player will always have one active vehicle attached to it. The default Vehicle is called DefaultVehicle. This is when Player doesn't "ride" any animals.

DefaultVehicle gameObject in Player prefab.

• Switching to new vehicle will destroy / disable the currently attached vehicle, and instantiate the new one. This is done in VehicleController component.

  • Note : vehicle is "switched" in one of the following condition :

    • colliding with Enemy with "vehicle" data

    • current vehicle's effect is completed. In this case, the vehicle will be reverted to DefaultVehicle

    • some special case (e.g. Revive)

Component Details

• Each vehicle has its own prefab, and contains these following base components:

  • VehicleControl : to handle movement

  • VehicleView : to handle vehicle's spine animations

  • VehicleCollision : to manage vehicle's collision resolution with another object

  • VehicleFSM : to manage states in the vehicle. Uses MonoBehaviourFSM.

• Each new vehicle will have to derive from the above components and create a specific implementation based on the mechanic design.
