Topic: Rayhit point
Hey, the point that you get from the rayhit-function. Can you get that somehow to match with different objects so you can make scripts depending on what it hits?
Re: Rayhit point
You add the object you want to test as last parameter :
point = rayHit(start, end, object)
if point then
-- you hit "object"
endRe: Rayhit point
You are awesome. Thanks.
Re: Rayhit point
A = getObject("A")
C = getObject("C")
Apos = getPosition(A)
Cpos = getPosition(C)
and then this code:
point = rayHit(Apos, Cpos, weapon_salesman)
if onKeyDown("MOUSE_BUTTON1") and firing == 1 and derringer == true then
if point then
print("you hit weapon salesman")
end
elseif onKeyDown("MOUSE_BUTTON1") and firing == 1 and shotgun == true then
if point then
print("you hit weapon salesman")
end
end
So is this code right?

Re: Rayhit point
if Cpos is far away enough it should be
Re: Rayhit point
Hm, the distance is dx 100 and it works when i'm leaving out the salesman and aiming at something with physics?
And when I shoot the salesman is between a and c but it doesn't register. :s

Re: Rayhit point
Your script is good, the problem comes from Maratis, I just found a bug.
The 3rd argument with the object was not implemented correctly in the code... oups
Re: Rayhit point
That's alright. Hope we get it soon. 
Re: Rayhit point
Can you write me what point Apos, Bpos is compared to so that I can make a table and make a if true statement then hit lets say weapon_salesman?
Re: Rayhit point
The code is corrected on svn, but I won't build it before the next version is ready,
you can build it yourself by installing a compiler (visual studio for windows, or gcc for unix), python and scons and by getting the code from svn.
Re: Rayhit point
How convenient that I have just began a programming course in school then.
