Flying birds?

by Jari · in Torque Game Engine · 07/09/2006 (4:37 am) · 6 replies

Hi,
I would like to add a flying bird but I'm not sure how to do this because the player class doesnt have support for flying and it's not howercraft either. :)
Any suggestions what aproach would be the most reasonable considering the engine's existing functionaity?

Thanks.

You could just use a pathShape.

Quick and easy though limited in control.

With the resource linked below, all you have to do is create the bird model, animate it, spawn it on a path that you create and watch it fly.

Hey, thanks for the replies!
That pathshape works alright, not very realistic though because the bird doesn't even turn but I quess I'll just have to improve it from here.

Thanks again.

Oh no the pathshape code makes out of range write to net stream after a while. In line 357 of pathShape.cc
