Click Spawn

[fumanshoo]

I am trying to spawn a model by clicking. I expected it would be something as simple as

 

if KeyDown (MOUSE_LEFT)==1 then
  LoadMesh (blah blah blah)
end

 

why can't I click?

[macklebee]

if MouseHit(1)==1 then
  LoadMesh (blah blah blah)
end

look at MouseHit(#) where (1) is Left mouse click, (2) is Right mouse click, and (3) is Middle mouse click.

 

the values defined in the keycodes.lua script can be used in the MouseHit/MouseDown commands...

if MouseHit(MOUSE_LEFT)==1 then
  LoadMesh (blah blah blah)
end

Thank you!

This enumeration (in C#) might be helpful within your code

 

 

public enum MouseButton
{
None = 0,
Left,
Right,
Middle,
Aux
}

 

 

For clarity and easier code, I would recommend making an enumeration for each set that you commonly use.
