Hey does anyone know a good way to get an arc like you would get from throwing a grenade? I've been toying around with it and I can't get it to where it looks clean any suggestions?

    Gravity is a force, no matter what is your speed at first it will bring it down(of course in real life when you go too high the gravity will be weaker

    @tshirtbooth Ok so right now I have Accelerate at 270 to scene at 400 speed. The other is velocity at 25 direction at like 300 (i tried 390, 399, 500) basically it looks like it has the right arc as it gets out and then a short distance out it looks like it hits a wall and drops. Should I accelerate at an angle as well?

    Well tried accelerate at an angle and it still looks like it hit a wall and then drops slightly at that angle.

    @tshirtbooth That's the thing though. Regardless of what the power and accelerate are at at a certain point it looks like it just hits a wall and drops I've changed it to high numbers low numbers changed the directions changed the power to half or double the accelerate and it still looks like it hits a wall (with diff effects like if power is above accelerate it looks like it hits the wall travels up it and drops back down.)

    @tshirtbooth Thanks, but I think I kind of have it. I changed the Accelerate from down to like 350 so it is pointing the right direction and then has a slight arc down and put the accelerate at 1000 Still looks like it is hitting a wall a tiny bit but I think with a bit more toying it should work properly or close enough. Thanks a ton for helping :)

    What got it for me was this if anyone is curious later.
    Accelerate direction 350 at 2000 speed
    Change Velocity direction 30 at 300 speed
