Time for action – itchy trigger finger

This is a whole lot of nerd-talk and not enough shooting. Let's build a bullet so that we can take these alien bad boys down.

  1. In the menu, navigate to GameObject | Create Other | Sphere. Rename the resulting Sphere bullet.
  2. In the Hierarchy panel, click to select your newly minted bullet.
  3. In the Inspector panel, reset the bullet's Transform values, and then punch in 0.5 for all three Scale values:

    Position: X:0, Y:0, Z:0

    Rotation: X:0, Y:0, Z:0

    Scale: X:0.5 , Y: 0.5 , Z: 0.5

  4. Hover over the Scene view and press the F key to focus it within the Scene.
