| Create an array of missile objects that you can fire from your missile launcher by using your Xbox 360 controller or keyboard. |

|
|
|
 |
|
Step 2 |
|
|
|
| Create and initialize an array of new missile GameObjects that can be fired by the player. |
|

|
| |
|
Step 3 |
|
|
|
| Modify Update to call FireMissile when the player presses the appropriate button, but use previous input states to keep them from holding the button down. |
|

|
Step 4 |
|
|
|
| Learn about transformations and vectors in 3D while creating the FireMissile method that places missiles at the appropriate position and velocity when fired. |
|
|
|
| |
|
Step 5 |
|
|
|
| Create an UpdateMissiles method that applies velocity to flying missiles and eliminates them from the game world when they fly too far away. |

|
|
| |
