Add VolumeController at runtime

[dmarqsp]

Hi,

I have 2 questions:

How can I add volume at runtime for VolumeController? I know that VolumeController has a 'volume' property that can be filled, but I can't find where that reference object is under the generator. I looked for BuildShapeExtrusion and BuildVolumeMesh APIs with no luck.

And another question, when I fill that volume to VolumeController, the object will instantly snap to the spline position, even if 'automatically play' is disabled? If yes, how can I make it not auto-snap to the spline?

Thanks in advance!

2- For the object to not snap, you will have to disable the controller.
I hope this helped.
Have a nice day.

Thanks for the answers!

About the question 2:

I still would like to smoothly move the object to the spline instead of snapping. Is there a way we can do it like the 'damping' option out-of-the-box or should I need to create a child class of VolumeController myself and change that setting?

Thanks again!

You are welcome.

This damping is not available out of the box. You would probably need to create a child class, and override the ComputeTargetPositionAndRotation method to define the lerping logic between controlled and not controlled transform.

Have a nice weekend.
