--Entity gets "has stopped working" error

[tipforeveryone]

This is Leadwerks 4.3

 

This problem happens when you choose a box to be --entity "Point", it works fine with Pivot

Run this simple thing and you will get error when pressing A

Does 'box 5' have mass or a script attached to it? If not, then it has been collapsed with the rest of the scriptless, massless CSG in the scene - essentially making 'box 5' no longer a viable standalone entity.

 

If you are wanting to use a massless, scriptless CSG entity for setting the position for something based on a key hit, then i would suggest obtaining the position of that entity in the Start function to be used later in UpdateWorld() - as it appears the Start functions are called prior to the CSG collapsing.

 

Script.point = nil --Entity "Point"

 

function Script:Start()

self.pos = self.point:GetPosition(true)

end

 

function Script:UpdateWorld()

if window:KeyHit(Key.A) then

self.entity:SetVelocity(0,0,0)

self.entity:SetPosition(self.pos,true)

end

end

 

Or just use a pivot or attach an empty script to the CSG...

Is this resolved?

I believe this will work in the latest beta build.

Yes, it was fixed, thank you

Good! I want everything to work perfectly. Thank you for helping.
