Seen that this flag "untouchable" if attributed to an entity that are not important for the mouse, you gain some framerate, especially if there are many models, it would be well add it in wed as a flag to check in the properties of the model.

It says nothing about the default settings of my.enable_touch. It does however so for my.untouchable: Quote: entity.enable_touch: Mouse events will only be triggered if the entity is within a distance given by the predefined MOUSE_RANGE variable (default 1000 quants) from the camera position. Quote: entity.untouchable: Makes the entity 'invisible' for the mouse, and thus allows mouse events on objects behind this entity. On - penetrable for mouse events Off - catches mouse events (default) flag What's the purpose anyway of having two flags for the same thing with their default settings cancelling out each other? cheers

I've actually never used either of these, I'm just going off what I remember from the manual and whatever my mind's common sense tells me... xXxGuitar511 - Programmer

Both rely on the mouse doing a trace with range 1000 by default. edit: and btw what you see above is ALL (!) it says in the manual about these two flags. If you know of any other info in the manual about these flags please specify where it can be found ... Last edited by tindust; 02/13/07 15:17.
