Collisions on static buildings

by Nathan Allen · in Torque X 3D · 04/11/2010 (7:54 pm) · 2 replies

this is the code in my level file. I have the book on order, but in the mean time, I need to know how to make a room where you can't walk through doorways, etc

It doesn't work. I just end up walking through the walls. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Well I seem to have stumped everyone. The only reason I was going to do it using the editor was I have a couch, chair, etc I have to layout and it would be easier to put them in world that way.

But would it be efficient to do it using code? What would the code look like to make the collision on a static building?

I am no expert but I believe you actualy have to have a collision box size greater than 0...

ie..
<Shape type="GarageGames.Torque.T3D.RigidCollision.CollisionBoxShape">
<Size>
<X>0</X>
<Y>0</Y>
<Z>0</Z>
</Size>

This will only create one single box..BTW

!!!!-actually I am wrong...the T3DStaticGeometeryComponent creates its own collision shape..I use xml for all of my models..I will look into my code, and see what I can find..plus..I am not sure about spaces in your group name...
