Hitting Collision?
by Bobby Leighton · in Torque 3D Professional · 11/29/2010 (5:02 pm) · 51 replies
Ok I'm working on a zombie shooter game, and I am trying to work out a few things with projectile collision, here is what I want to do:
When projectile hits a certain collision marker I need it to return information about which on it hit, and then execute code based on which one it was.
I already have a test object setup with 9 collision markers setup, and collision is working. I can also get information that the collisions are returning values I just don't know how to separate from one collision box to another. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

lol ignore them, I was going down the list of files that I had made and I had included one becasue it was in the original list, before the port(bad!), and the other I honestly don't know why I put it in there, but it doesn't have any changes to it, so you should be set there. Ill send you a copy of the those script in a few minutes as long as I don't confuse somthing there too.

Just so you know, If you don't include the Vehicle::castRay function you'll still get a hitbox ID during projectile::onCollision with Vehicles, however it will always be -1 as no actual hitbox checking is done. The RayInfo struct just always sets hitbox to -1 when one's instantiated. Either way if it's doing that much the hitbox resource itself is probably installed correctly.

I thought I was somthing like that. So in my final version I will include your vehicle fix just for completeness sake.
