I have had a good look around the forum for info on what im looking for and there probably is a tutorial out there that can help me, but there is so many beginner tutorials that i wouldnt know which one to look at, when i was looking around i basicaly kept seeing about newton collision or watever, im just not ready to use dll's yet cuz im a begginer,

anyways..what im trying to do is

im shooting a sphere from the camera down and when it hits the matrix i want it to delete

i think what i have to do is, i have to get the matrix height and basicaly write, if sphere position is the same as the matrix height then delete. ive tried a few things but they didnt work, could anyone give me a hand please? thanks

You have the right idea


just put watever you want to do to the sphere where i have `etc, but if you delete it make sure you use if object exist(objnum) to make sure db wont crash.
Good luck!

Make it so that when it is equal to or less than the matrix ground height that it will delete it.

Chances are there won't be a time when it is exactly the same height as the matrix.
