Bug or feature ?- animated collision mesh.
by Hewster · in Torque 3D Professional · 08/18/2009 (2:24 pm) · 1 replies
I have created a test object, with a collision mesh, and ambient animation.
When firing my weapon at said mesh, collision works as expected.
When the player enters the objects collision influence area, it seems
T3D takes a snapshot of where the collision mesh is at that time,
and uses this then static collision mesh to calculate the player collision.
See vid:
Is this an expected feature ?
If this is an expected feature, could I request an option to set an
animated meshes collision (regarding the player) to be updated on a
per tick or frame bases, ie a check box 'animate collision for player'
I am sure there must be a reason that the collision is animated / tested
for weapon projectile collision, and not for player (bug or for performance)
Cheers,
Hewster
EDIT: sorry the vid plays a bit fast, I recorded at 15fps, and youtube plays it at 30
