Pick info entity issue question

[aiaf]

Hello

 

Have a problem with pick info an entity, i have setup a keyvalue on the model.

if (pickinfo.entity->GetKeyValue("mas") != "") {                
                System::Print("hit");
                int val = stoi(pickinfo.entity->GetKeyValue("mas"));
                if (window->MouseHit(1)) {
                    System::Print("hit");
                    console->mas[val]->DecrementHps();
                }
            }

 

Code above works if i use a boxes (Model::Box)

model = Model::Box(0.1, 0.1, 0.1);

If i use a model like below:

  model = Model::Load("Models/Asteroids/AsteroidMobileE_LOD3.mdl");
  model->SetScale(0.05);

  Shape* shape = Shape::Sphere(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1);
  model->SetShape(shape);
  shape->Release();

 

The code doesn't detect anymore the mouse over the model.

Any idea what is going on here ? im missing something.

Did you see if it detects just the entity if you don't check for the key?

[aiaf]

Yes it detects the entity if no key check, i put a print.

 

Here is how i add the keys:

  for(int i=0; i < masrmax; i++) {
    mas.push_back(new MissileAsteroid(unitexpmat,
      GetPointOnSphere(currentUnit->GetModel()->GetPosition(), 10, Math::Random(0, 360), Math::Random(0, 360)),
      currentUnit->GetModel()->GetPosition(), false));
    mas->GetModel()->SetKeyValue("mas" , String(i));
  }

Inside MissileAsteroid constructor:

//model = Model::Box(0.1, 0.1, 0.1);
    model = Model::Load("Models/Asteroids/AsteroidMobileE_LOD3.mdl");
    model->SetScale(0.05);
    mass = 0.09;
    model->SetMass(mass);
    model->SetGravityMode(false);

    Shape* shape = Shape::Sphere(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1);
    model->SetShape(shape);
    shape->Release();

 

Did some debugging below the phases i was interested in

Creation of model:
model -> entity -> shape
In both cases the shape object is initialized ok.
Nothing strange here.

Pick of entities:
pickinfo -> entity

keys
shape -> aabb
I think the aabb is used for physics and maybe to detect picks.

shape is null in case of the asteroid model load.
keys does not contain the value i added (just a key name with value name of model).

 

Not sure if related to the shape , some exclusion may happen inside for a reason, for sure the keys are not there.

I think we will need an example we can run to test this.

[aiaf]

Sure, i attached a test, output on console for mouse click:

lep-master.zip

I found a workaround,

i use TOOLS -> Collapse in the editor and now the pick and keys are ok.

[aiaf]

i spoke too soon

The pick is ok.

When i put the collapsed mdls in game , some have a green color all over the model ... other are just black area with some texture seen through

When i put back the old mdls without collapse all looks good grey asteroids with textures.

Any idea ? really annoying
