AddBodyForceAtPoint?

[Von04]

Does anyone have an example of AddBodyForceAtPoint to a picked object? I need the force to come from the angle of the camera to the picked object. I also need to do this is c++ and not in Lua. Any help would be appreciated.

[Marleys Ghost]

convert the relevant code from the fpscontroller.lua to c++ ?

Off the top of my head I would do it like this

 

When you spawn a player or object that you want to shoot later:

 

Put the class in an array eg. make a player class and manage all your players through a player class array. so player[0] points to the first instance of your player class etc.

 

When you spawn a player do this:

SetEntityKey(PlayerMeshEntity, "Player", "playerNumber");  // make playerNumber an actuall number like "1" whatever it will have to increment for every player of object

 

Then you have:

 

TPick Bullet;
int hitPlayer;
TVec3 force;

if(LinePick(&Bullet, startPos, endPos)){

        //Use startPos & endPos to calculate the vector for the force. You will also have to normalize the force and give it a multiplyer to suit your needs This might 
       //help :http://www.leadwerks.com/wiki/index.php?title=AddBodyForceAtPoint

       force = /**a function of startPos & endPos I couldn't be bothered figuring it out right now**/;

        hitPlayer = atoi(GetEntityKey(Bullet.entity, "Player"));

        AddBodyForceAtPoint(player[hitPlayer]->playerBody, force, Vec3(Bullet.X, Bullet.Y, Bullet.Z));
}

And thats it XD
