The program I am trying to run basicaly is two matricies side by side (1000 units square, first matrix at 0,0,0 second at 1000,0,0). Right now all the program does is take a camera and using the arrow keys runs the camera over the terrain (following the terrain contours of course).

The code works perfectly as long as I don't leave the cinfines of matrix 1. The code breaks when I get onto matrix 2 (I can still roam around but the camera will not follow the terrain contours). I've tried everything I can think of (this is just my latest version) and I can not figure out for the lofe of me why the code does not work.

I cut out an extra line of code that might get confusing. Try the source code on this post

Problem is that GET GROUND HEIGHT is relative to matrix position, not world position, so for matrix 2, assuming it is at 1000,0,0



Boo!
