Does anyone have a good distance function that will check the distance between two objects and then if the distance is equal to 0 then perfrom an action?

Go into code snippets section and type 'distance' into search box at bottom of page. There are a couple of links there.

+ Code Snippet

function dist_obj(o,o2)
  ox#=object position x(o2)
  oz#=object position z(o2)
  oy#=object position y(o2)
  dx#=object position x(o)-ox#
  dz#=object position z(o)-oz#
  dy#=object position y(o)-oy#
  dist#=sqrt((dx#*dx#)+(dz#*dz#)+(dy#*dy#))
endfunction dist#

Should work

There's no place like 127.0.0.1

There are 10 people in this world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
