Checking Collision with a subnode

[Chapre]

Hello! I'm working on collision between 2 objects, When my main object collide with a second object, I can easily get the the second object ID; my main problem now is how will I check if my main object collided with a child (subnode) of the second object?

There is no command to check for collisions with a sub-part of an object. You can do this using the method described in the following article:

You can also try re-parenting the child to viz.WORLD, apply a collision shape to it, and then detect collisions.

e.g.
model = viz.add( 'myModel.ive')
child = model.getChild( 'subnode-GEODE' )
child.parent( viz.WORLD )
child.collideBox()
