Mouse Pick

by Andy S. · in Torque Game Engine · 06/17/2007 (1:13 pm) · 2 replies

Hi,

after i have been away long from torque, i am considering it again for a project. I searched the forums for "mouse pick", but only found topics in the "RTS-Section"...so my question is, does torque out of the box support mousepicking? Selecting characters or units like in a RTS?

Cheers

I did it once, I forget how though, I think there was a resource.

Here ya go: Object selection in Torque 2.0

Also, if you pick up AFX, the functionality is automatically built in. A lot of amazing capability and tech is built into AFX. It's not just a pretty FX system: key upgrades and game play functionality is made 10X easier using the system, such as object selection, magic spells, RPG elements, lighting, mounting, animation, and more.
