"Pusher" engines? sorta like maglev?

[Rivvik]

Is it possible to limit the effective range of engine thrust from a distance to a surface?

Basically an engine that would require a surface to function, hover engines, as it were. Our better yet, repulsor engines.

I know the effect could be emulated by constructing a wheel type assembly with invisible parts for everything under the mount, but I want to see if it's possible to do this the right way first.

Thanks.

It would require some raycasting but yes, something like this is possible in Unity. It would function pretty similarly to a wheel collider, I think.

Just scoped it. Awesome!

When I get back Home I'll see if I can contact him about using his plugin.

Thanks for the heads up!
