More progress on the Sci-Fi FPS, shown running inside the Unity Editor in Play mode. This update adds three notable features: a railgun weapon, an ACR assault rifle, and exploding platforms. The railgun fires a fast hitscan or projectile beam, while the ACR integrates into the existing RFPS weapon system. The exploding platforms are the most technically interesting addition — when triggered they apply physics force to nearby objects, launching the player and any rigidbodies in range. The HUD displays Health, Ammo, Hunger, and Thirst values, hinting at a survival element being explored alongside the core FPS mechanics.
