How to do "Check Node.y<0, Restart Scene" ? I ask this question because there is no enterframe access in CopperCube and creating another timer to handle this is not my first choice. |

If you don't want to use a timer. You can set a plane beneath the level and set on the proximity that the player enter then to restart the scene. |

Hello 3dblendsphinx, it is ALWAYS nice to see your replies. The large plane method occurred to me, but different levels have different world size, so a one size fits all plane would be incredibly Huge. But yes that seems to be it. I just wonder how much processor power it eats having such a LARGE object testing for collision 60 frames per second, I mean testing if y < 0 is SO MUCH Faster but creating another timer to do that instead of addEventListener(Event.enterframe)...almost felt too resource hogging. If only coppercube have a "every frame do this" event to access. Do you have a YouTube channel I can subscribe to ? Feel like being your friend. |

I have one that I haven't done anything with I was planning to do something with it but I tend to stretch myself thin with other stuff. I wanted to make some CopperCube tutorials when I was more familiar with it. I just have been bouncing back and forth between game engines. That is why I disappear for a moment. Because after I bought Coppercube I got Leadworks on sale but then I also have my other engine I like playing with. (and yes I am a engine horder) But if you want to keep and eye for when I do so soemthing with it it is here. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtOFLA4SMLUCcf_ZSUL48zA But for the large plane if you look at it in wireframe view it is only 8 polygons regardless of the size. So it shouldn't be that much of a resource hog with only 8 Polys and then you can apply a black texture and make it transparent(add). ( Can't save if it would save on processing) I made a black texture for triggers because when objects are hidden their script doesn't run. So I add a black texture and then switch to transparent(add) so it is hidden but have a proximity trigger for if I want something to happen. Maybe in the next update Niko could add trigger points that isn't render by the engine but runs certain scripts when player collides with them. |

I have subscribed to you. You spreading yourself thin ? Count me in, at this point in writing, I am: 1: Updating my book that I have published. 2: Working on another book. 3: Design the Character that will be the main character in my second book. 4: 3D Modeling Characters. 5: Making a Game. 6: Planning my next YouTube video. All these while at the same time *thinking*....just *thinking* about learning babylon.js...trying to fit THAT in.... Babylon's Real Time Rendering is out of this world. |

I have created a behavior specifically for this but generic enough for everyone to use. This behavior is call "If_Below_Sea_Level" where you can specify an action to carry out if player is below a specified Sea Level specified by you. I have uploaded the file to Niko, hopefully he will put it in his download extension section of Coppercube soon. |
