how would I spawn a whelled vehicle

by Anthony Rosenbaum · in Torque Game Engine · 10/23/2001 (1:52 pm) · 2 replies

I could uses command to server to spawn it and that it would appear close to the player but not ontop of him and that it would be high enough that won't get stuck by collision?

Here's how I did it,

First I made a Level01 script. Here's the code:


// Level 01 Script

function LoadLevel01( %client )
{
%BotCount = 4;

$BotName[0] = "Big Dan";
$BotName[1] = "Jason";
$BotName[2] = "Zecmo";
$BotName[3] = "Nooclles";

for(%i = 0; %i < %BotCount; %i++)
{
$Bot[%i] = AIPlayer::spawnPlayer( %client );
$Bot[%i].setShapeName($BotName[%i]);
// $Bot[%i].setAimObject($Bot[0]);
$Bot[%i].setMoveSpeed(10);
// $Bot[%i].setMoveDestination($Bot[0].getPosition());
// BOT_findPath(%this, %targetPosition);
}

}

wow this was an old post, solved it along time ago, that for the reply
the answer was 
if(%client.player.isMounted())
         return;

         %vehicle = new WheeledVehicle()
         {
           dataBlock = Vamp;
         };

         MissionCleanup.add(%vehicle);
         %vehicle.mountable = true;

         $point = "0 8 3";   //8 meters in front, 3 meters up  GENERICpoint
         $trans = %client.player.getTransform(); //location of player
         $point = MatrixMulPoint($trans, $point);//makes a new point by combning 2 points
         %vehicle.setTransform($point);
