hello.
I have a spaceship flying and shooting (3rd person view).
I have some enemies that collide with it (as asteroids).

the problem is that sometimes, when the enemies are really close to the back of the spaceship, a bullet shoots backwards hitting the enemy, as if it is an homing missile, and the strange thing is that the enemy is immediately destroyed instead of taking the specified amount of damage...

anybody has any clue?

thanks
Paolo
