Mounting objects - best practice

by Ryan Mick · in Torque Game Engine · 12/06/2004 (6:05 am) · 4 replies

I know I have seen something about this in the formus a while ago but for the life of me I can't find it anymore. What I need to know is, what is the best way to mount an object to another object in a game. For example if I wanted to mount flags to a post whenever x number of laps were completed. Any and all help would be appreciated.

%objectToMountTo.mountObject(%mountPoint, %ObjectToMount);

Isn't it:
%objectToMountTo.mountObject(%ObjectToMount,%mountPoint); ?

It is:
%objectToMountTo.mountObject(%ObjectToMount,%mountPoint);
