Obtaining Positional Data

[betancourtb82]

New question, similar problem. I have now been told that the avatars must appear with different faces, based on an input. Here is what I have done so far:

#define a choice variable
choice = viz.input("Please input the condition:")
global facepic
if choice == 1:
	facepic = 'biohead_talk.vzf'
else:
	facepic = 'morph_head.vzf'

#Create six avatars
for i in range(NUM_AVATARS):
	newX = -10 * math.sin(theta * i)
	newZ = 10 * math.tan(theta * i)
	if newZ <=10:
		newZ = -15
	else:
		newZ = 10 * math.tan(theta * i)
	#print i,"\t\t\t\t\t",newX,"\t",newZ
	male = viz.add('male.cfg')
	male.face(facepic)
	male.scale(1.25,1.25,1.25)
	male.translate(newX,-10,newZ)
	avPos = male.get(viz.POSITION)
	print 'original avatar position', avPos 
	male.rotate(180,0,0)
	avatars.append(male) #Save avatar in list

Now, when I shoot the avatars, they fall and disappear, as planned. The problem I'm having is that the face still stays on the screen.

Here is the code for removing the avatars once shot:

	#Check if bullet intersected with anything
	info = viz.intersect(pos,futurePos)
	if info.intersected:
		print 'intersect point is',info.intersectPoint
		if info.object in avatars:
			WaitThenFreeze = vizact.sequence( vizact.waittime(info.object.getduration(7)-0.005), vizact.speed_node(0) )
			info.object.execute(7)
			info.object.clear(viz.ALL)
			info.object.clear(viz.CURRENT_ACTION)
			info.object.add(WaitThenFreeze) #Add the action to the avatar
			RemoveAvatarAction = vizact.call(RemoveAvatar,info.object)
			info.object.add(RemoveAvatarAction) #Add action to remove avatar

Is there a reason why the face stays floating in the air. I'm assuming it should disappear with the body. Please help.

Thanks
