What is the point of the yellow position Amit Bijlani, could calculating that position have been avoided by simply giving the projectile a lifespan of say 2 seconds? Meaning after the time ran out, it would be removed.
I know there would be a little more nodes at any one time compared to your method but I don’t think it would have that much of an affect on the FPS.
By doing this newcomers to iOS wouldn’t be put off/ confused by the math. Im not saying I have a problem with it, it reminds me of math class which I enjoyed but it just feels overkill for this game.
Other than that, love the tutorials so far.
