Camera collisions with duckcourt code

[shivanangel]

I was attempting to use the duck court code to have players shoot a ball from inside a world. However there are slight differences between the duck demo and my demo that have since caused quite a few problems.

In my demo, the players collide with a landscape, so there collision is turned on. When I go to shoot a ball using the duck court code, it positions the ball directly at my players location, and when it is fired, my character gets quite a jolt of kickback in the form of a push in +Y direction. If I keep doing this I can keep goign upward till I run out of balls.

Any thoughts on how this could be addressed? I saw that the phys line is used at the beginning. Is there a way to move slightly further out along this vector in vizard, or do I have to do that part by scratch?

Thanks,
George

Have you tried disabling collisions between the viewpoint and the balls?

ball.disable(viz.INTERSECTION)

This will only disable collisions between the view and the ball, the ball will still have physics enabled.

You sir, are a Vizard God.

Thank you once again. And with that my demo is nearly complete!
