Re: Geometry Floating issue

Ah, I see it now. I didn't put a break in the loop, so once it found the grab object it still carried on grabbing other objects and the one I ended up getting was just the last one to be tested. That's my bad.
Thanks again for your help.

Re: Geometry Floating issue

I set the item held by the camera to false. which I have now taken out and it seems to have fixed it. I didn't realize it would transfer its lack of gravity to other objects. I have only tested it a bit but hopefully that has fixed it completely.

Thanks Norbo.

Geometry Floating issue

Hey, Attached is a video of something I am working on for a University project. I am trying to get destructible geometry due to an explosion and I am getting close to achieving this. The only problem is that every now and then geometry just starts to float around as if in a zero g environment. Any h...

Re: CompoundBodies and Destruction

Ah, I have made these changes and it worked. I had a weird graphical thing where modeldrawer was still drawing the original compound whole so I simple removed and re-added it and it all works nicely.

Thank you.

Re: CompoundBodies and Destruction

Hi, I attached the below Collision handler to the main compound shape and it works how I like. I want subsequent compounds that come from the split to also be able to split. Right now if I don't attach this handler to compounds that resulted from a split it works, but of course only once. If I do at...

Re: CompoundBodies and Destruction

Thank Norbo, I will give that a try. Would you be able to tell me how to hook it up to a collision event. Do I put it in the collision event for the whole compound or just the single compound shape entry?

Re: CompoundBodies and Destruction

Could please just give me an outline on splitting a compound. Is it possible to split on a specific shape in the compound? I saw that there was a mutableCompoundsDemo in the Demos download and I had a look through that, from this I got splitting at a half way point. What I really want to be able to ...

CompoundBodies and Destruction

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to solve a problem I have. I am trying to build Destructible geometry, at the moment I am trying to build a basic wall that is made up out of smaller blocks. My end goal is that when the wall is hit in a certain spot, parts of it...
