[solved]need some help with lua script

[swipis]

Hello there!

I trying to make camera movement, Scene looks like root>Player>pivot>Camera. here is the script:

Script.Pivot = "" --entity "Pivot"
function Script:UpdateWorld()
print(Pivot:GetRotation())
end

 

 

It should print pivot rotation, but Im getting "attempt to index global "Pivot" (a nil value)".

Can someone explain what is wrong here?

 

Thank you

Shouldn't that be self.Pivot:GetRotation() ?

If I put self.Pivot:GetRotation() I will get "pivot rotation: userdata:0x0103fa58" in Output.

System:Print("x:"..tostring(self.Pivot:GetRotation().x) .."y:"..tostring(self.Pivot:GetRotation().y), "z:"..tostring(self.Pivot:GetRotation().z) )

use System:print and tostring

[macklebee]

or use LE's built-in method to parse a vec3 into a comma-separated string using 'Vec3:ToString()' instead of the built-in lua function 'tostring()':

System:Print("Pivot Rotation: "..self.Pivot:GetRotation():ToString())
