Wow, it's been a long time since I've been on these forums. Anyway...
Does anyone know of a good way to do collision detection for *only* one limb?

the only way I can think of is:
1. Replace the limb with a small sphere (the sphere is the limb now)
2. Make the original limb(arm,cannon, whatever you had) and use the attach object to limb command
3.check for collision with the object

hope this helps

I glue a small cube to both ends of the limb. It takes some manual positioning on your part. Then, using Sparky's DLL, cast a ray of intersection from one limb to another. Then you have almost perfect limb collision.


Come see the WIP!
