Hello all. I been trying to figure out how I could get a working script to tell me what the velocity of my bullets are. I have done everything I can and I am stumped. I've been wondering if I have to use sensors, but I would at least like to see maybe an example of its use? I am trying to design a health or HP system that goes down based off of the bullet's velocity. This has been done before, but I am having trouble working the velocity part out. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

well if the target is sensing the bullet, it would probably use a volume detect, or collision_start event, and in the event do something like:
float velocity;
velocity = llVecMag(llDetectedVel(0));

Problem yet again!
Ok I get the velocity figured out, I even got it to turn into an integer so I can have percise damage counting. But now I have issue...
How exactly can I take one integer and subract it's total from another?
I tried the obvious with my two integers, health and ExactVelocity
health - Exactvelocity;
Gave no effect, so now I'm pretty stumped again...

Try:
health = health - Exactvelocity;
or
health -= Exactvelocity;
