SetPosition(FindChild)

[AggrorJorn]

I'm trying to load a model that should be positioned at a bone called 'slingerpoint'

Can someone tell me what I need to change to get this to work?

 

function object:Init()
	self.slinger=LoadModel("abstract::slinger.gmf")
	self.pos=self.model:FindChild("slingerpoint")
	self.slinger:SetPosition(self.pos)
end

You're not getting the position, you're getting the actual bone. So something like:

 

self.pos=self.model:FindChild("slingerpoint"):GetPosition(1)

Thanks Niosop, that worked.

function object:Init()
	self.pos=self.model:FindChild("slingerpoint"):GetPosition(1)
	self.slinger=LoadModel("abstract::matt_woonkamer_slingerklok_slinger.gmf")
	self.slinger:SetPosition( self.pos )
end

 

Do you also perhaps know which command to use, so that the position of the slinger gets updated when I move the main object?

[Niosop]

self.slinger:SetParent(self.model)
