Picking up objects in order...

by Arnold Resendez · in Torque 3D Beginner · 04/18/2011 (6:18 pm) · 3 replies

Hey! I'm working on a project for a class using Torque 3D and I was wondering if it was possible to be able to pick up objects in a certain order. If so, how would I go about it?

I'm sure I'm not the only one confused here. What exactly do you mean by that? Mounting them to the player in a certain order? Adding them to the inventory in a certain order? Having a magical hand appear and actually pick them up in a certain order? And I'm assuming you're referring to some in-game visualization of a "pick up."

I'm sorry if my interrogating sounds a bit harsh...

Well, the player would have to pick up blocks with letters on them to spell out a word to advance. As the player picks up these blocks in order, on the bottom right would be the letters they correctly picked up and how many are still missing. Kinda like Hangman. I was thinking of just have the player run into them without a visualization of a "pick up".

Don't worry about being harsh to me; sometimes being harsh is the only way to beat a more specific answer out of me.

So if the player is doing the picking up, are you trying to find out what order they were picked up?
