cant move player while in editor mode

by pilotcap232 · in Torque 3D Beginner · 10/12/2012 (4:22 pm) · 3 replies

any particular reason the player movement has been disabled in T3D 1.2 while in editor mode?

I remember in 1.1 and all its predecessors tgea, tge etc..
you could still move and wonder around with your player toon while in edit mode.

what has changed in T3D 1.2 that has disabled this feature?

or can it be activated back up?

Sounds like you're using a PhysX enabled template. Toggling the editor pauses the physics simulation. There's an option to resume it while in the editor, but doing so makes it more difficult for you to place Physics Objects in the world where you want them.

If your build is PhysX enabled, navigate the top menu and find the 'Physics' dropdown menu.

From there, Start the simulation. (Ctrl-Alt-P for short)

Edit : what Scott said :)
