| Raycast |
world:Raycast(Vector start, Vector end, Entity entityToIgnore, callback collisionCallback) |
Send a ray (line) from start position to end position, and call the collisionCallback with the entity that was hit and a HitResult structure if any Entity is hit along the way. Pass an entityToIgnore to tell it not to hit that one (for example ignore the player when doing a ray from a gun the player is holding). |
|
| Raycast |
world:Raycast(Vector start, Vector end, table entitiesToIgnoreTable, callback collisionCallback) |
Send a ray (line) from start position to end position, and call the collisionCallback with the entity that was hit and a HitResult structure if any Entity is hit along the way. Pass an array of entities to ignore. |
|
| Raycast |
world:Raycast(Vector start, Vector end, Entity entityToIgnore, bool highFidelityCollision, callback collisionCallback) |
Send a ray (line) from start position to end position, and call the collisionCallback with the entity that was hit and a HitResult structure if any Entity is hit along the way. Pass an entityToIgnore to tell it not to hit that one (for example ignore the player when doing a ray from a gun the player is holding). High fidelity collisions will ignore any collision with an entity's bounding box if it would not also collide with it's more complex inner collision |
