Aligned Angle

by Kevin James · in Torque Game Builder · 08/01/2006 (8:13 am) · 4 replies

I was under the impression that setting angle to aligned meant that the particles would be rotated to whatever direction they were going, however this doesn't work for me. Somebody mind giving me the scoop!?

Gracias!

    Are you using "setParticleOrientation()"? If not, then try using it with the mode "ALIGNED". Then use setAlignKeepAligned() to keep it aligned constantly.

    SWEEEET! I got it working the first try, thanks to you and my previous unsuccessful tinkering with it prior to today! It looks really awesome, thanks Master Apurva!

    Haha, your welcome! Is this part of the tank game?

    Oh yeah!

    Sparks aplenty now appear whenever you hit anything with the machine gun!

    I may tone them down a bit, but I'm not worried about that, lol
