P.L.A.C. Projectile Launch Angle Calculator: a cannon aiming at a target

PLAC Lite

In development Unity Asset StoreUnity 6URP

Our original Projectile Launch Angle Calculator, rebuilt for Unity 6 with bug fixes and feature improvements. PLAC Lite is a focused, easy-to-use system that solves ballistic firing angles, adjusting for gravity, to allow an NPC or game AI turret or weapon to fire a “dummy” style projectile and hit a designated target.

Coming to the Asset Store

PLAC Lite will be a new listing on the Unity Asset Store, coming soon.

See PLAC Complete Weapon System

If you're looking for a more robust solution, with advanced weapons, radar, target selection and HUD, consider PLAC Complete Weapon System instead, all the features of PLAC Lite, plus a lot more.

Documentation (coming soon)

Full documentation will be available here when PLAC Lite is released.
