Terrain not pickable

[shadmar]

Not sure if it was before, or not implemented yet.

 

Simple test :

 

Create a terrain with some simple elevation

 

Add this to App:Start()

 

--Create a sphere to indicate where the pick hits

local picksphere = Model:Sphere()

picksphere:SetColor(1.0,0.0,0.0)

--picksphere:SetPickMode(Entity.SpherePick)

 

local pickradius = 0.1

picksphere:SetScale(pickradius*2.0)

 

for x=0,1000 do

local pickinfo = PickInfo()

x,z = Math:Random(-100,100),Math:Random(-100,100)

if (self.world:Pick(Vec3(x,100,z),Vec3(x,0,z),pickinfo,pickradius,true)) then

local ps = picksphere:Instance()

ps:SetPosition(pickinfo.position)

end

end

You are correct. As a temporary solution you can called Terrain::Pick() with the same parameters.

Attempt to call method Pick (a nil value). I guess it wasn't exposed to lua.

[Josh]

You are correct. Will fix.

mhh. odd. in my FPS_test project it seems to work with this line:

 

self.camera:Pick(shw, shh, pickinfo, 0, true)

Camera picking is a different overload, actually. There is an internal Entity::Pick command used by all the pick routines.

Fixed for next build.
