X and Y dimensions for the FPS tutorial map?

by Frederic66 · in Torque Game Engine · 05/03/2004 (12:15 pm) · 7 replies

Hei,

All of the following questions refer to the FPS tutorial:

1* How do I get the X and Y dimensions for the FPS tutorial map? What are the units of measurement for the map dimensions? How do I change the X,Y dimensions?

2* How do I get the X, Y and Z coordinates of the control object? How do I get the X, Y and Z coordinates of the AI bot object?


Best Regards
Frederic66

2) 
%objPosition = %obj.getTransform();

Cool!

Can I call the getTransform() method from inside a C++ class?

Thanks and regards

Yes you can use that call in C++ or the TorqueScript. To find out all the functions advailable in the scripting language, for an object use the dump function and check the console for a readout 
%obj.dump();

Thanks Anthony.

Any idea how I can get the map dimensions? I am trying to understand the scaling.
