      Hey,
      I was trying to build a movable gun to shoot down targets using the emitters. I know everyone has used them but i wanted to make my own. Problem with mine though, the bullets from the emitter aren't solid, they fly right through the targets. What am i doing wrong?

        Emitted objects inherit the properties of the emitter.

            It's likely you're shooting them too fast for the physics engine to register a collision, try lowering the strength to around 50 and see if it works. Also check the parent object collides correctly. Emitted objects actually lose all properties except their shape; they will also be visible even if the parent object is hidden.
