Hello,
I am the lead programmer on the Hedron team. I work with Dragonfly3.
I took the Teleport Worlds tutorial and extended it to try to find out where I was causing the problem.
The teleport was not in issue.
I extended World1 out about 300 units. I then put in a line of code to move the Player when the key was pressed to a hard-coded location.
Code:
if( Players.elms())
{
Players[0].pos(Vec(-16.655, 5.715, 350.809));
}
If the Player is more than about 100 units from the destination, the move fails. I put in some debugging text -- it seems if you move the player too far, the Players structure is not re-populated.
Is there a different function that should be used for moving players/objects? Or is there a function to call to load the data structures for a newly entered area?
The only code changes I made were:
1) make it into a window instead of full screen.
2) added 2 clauses like that above to move on keypress.
3) added debugging clauses to print out player location, Players.elms, etc.
----------------
I have attached a zip file containing main.cpp and world1.
To reproduce:
1) Take the Teleport Worlds example from Tutorials
2) replace the main.cpp file with the one in my zip file
3) copy this world1 folder into the data\Worlds folder
If you press F7 from the starting location, the camera will move, but the player will not be there.
If you press F8, it does a "short" move putting you closer to the fail point.
I can give more details if required.
Thank you.
