I have got a glider and i have got a thermal, wich in my case is just a cylinder with an capsule colider wich triggers an upward force.
What i want to do now is that, when the glider comes more centric, the upward force becomes also more. So I have to measure the distance to the center of my cylindrical thermal.
I convertet my 2 Vetor3 to a vector2 for topview calculating.
Picture:
V3.distance (gives me the distance to the center of the object)
V2.distance (gives me the distance to the center axe of the cylinder( y becomes z in vector2))
In this case it works like I expected. But later on I want to add some windspeed wich affects the glider and also the thermal. So in this case the thermal will not be exactly on y axis anymore. it will be in between 90 and 45 degree compared to the horizont depending on the wind. So in this case my actual Script will not work here and i have to measure the distance to the center cylindrical axis.
Any Idea how I can do that?

float distance;
// Vector3 to Vector2 conversion from Topview
PilotV2 = new Vector2(Wing_Center_GO.transform.position.x, Wing_Center_GO.transform.position.z);
ThermikCenterV2 = new Vector2 (transform.position.x, transform.position.z);
// get distance from Thermal center
distance = Vector2.Distance (PilotV2, ThermikCenterV2);
ThermalDamp = distance * 0.1f;
Wing_Center_RigidBody.AddForce (Vector3.up * (ThermalStrength - ThermalDamp));
}
