Hi all,

I'm creating a game and so far i have some problems..the purpose of the game is to reach gates where player can teleport to another level. So my question how to do that when player come on gates something happen?
I was tried to comparison positions of camera and the gates (gates is an object), but unsuccesfully. Any advices?

that's strange, it should work...an option is adding an empty scene node and chek for collision, but the distance check is a better solution...should work

So...maybe any examples of working code? Would be very nice from your side...thanks!

no one is required to write code for you. the 3d distance formula is d=sqr((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2+(z2-z1)^2) you do the rest.

if(PlayerPosition.getDistanceFrom(gatePosition) < 500.f)
{
// Do it!
}

should work, nope?
