Hi,

I have following problem:
I want to move an entity from one vector to another.
For example (10,20,10)->(20,20,10)
When I use a while-loop with my.x+=1 I have the problem that I cannot use time_step.

Thats why I want to try it with c_move.

Code:

---

 while (x_my+10!=x_my_now){
x_my_now=my.x;
c_move (my, vector(0,0,0), vector(y_move * time_step,0, 0), ignore_models);
}
 

---

But now, the movement doesn't finish exactly at that vector I want it to have because of time_step.

Do you have any ideas for solving my (little) problem.

THANKS.

A vector is magnitude but also direction, you will need some more calculations. Using vec_accelerate its a possibility, change the target vector (0,0,0) to the vector you want to move and test it.

Code:

---

var vSpeed;
var vTarget[3] = 0,0,0;
var distBetweenObjTarget[3];

action testObj
{   
   var vAccel;   
   var vMove;   
   var iSpeed = 2;   
   while(1)   
   {      
      //turn towards target      
      vec_set(temp,vTarget.x);       
      vec_sub(temp,my.x);      
      vec_to_angle(my.pan,temp);       
      //calculate distance between obj and target      
      distBetweenObjTarget = vec_dist(my.x,target.x);       
      //calculate velocity to apply      
      vAccel.x = iSpeed * distBetweenObjTarget[0];       
      vAccel.y = iSpeed * distBetweenObjTarget[1];
      vAccel.z = iSpeed * distBetweenObjTarget[2];
      vec_accelerate(vMove, vSpeed, vAccel, 0.5);
      c_move(my, vMove, nullvector, glide);      
      wait(1);      
   }
}

Thank you very much. Cause of your help I could solve my problem.
