[Scene creation] Collision not detected between barrel and box - SOLVED

[PoussinJoyeux]

Hi,

 

I'm a total beginner in Leadwerks so my question will probably be an easy one

 

I create a new scene.

I put a big box (BOX1) in it for the floor, a little box (BOX2) with a mass of 1.0 and a barrel (from "models") with a mass of 1.0.

BOX2 and barrel are put above BOX1.

 

When I "run" the scene, BOX2 goes down and collide with BOX1 and stays on it but the barrel goes down and continue to go down through BOX1 and dissapear.

 

I don't understand why the collision is not detected for barrel because all parameters seems identical between BOX2 and barrel.

I tried different collision type (prop, scene, debris...) and result is the same in all cases.

 

What did I miss for barrel? Is it because it is not a simple shape as a box or sphere and so the collision must be managed differently (with a script for instance)?

 

Thanks for your help!

CSG brushes are automatically having a physics shape which is exactly like their appearance. For models you need to specify a shape (.phy) or a csg brush.

Some screenshots of physics setup on all 3 and the final result might help us solve this puzzle better.

You probably need to press "Fit shape" in barrel physics settings, it will give it a physics shape.

Thanks for all your answers! Great community here!

 

Doing like AggrorJorn said (="specify a shape") solved my problem. Thanks!

 

I can now continue to design my first scene. Yeah!!!
