hmmmmmm......
Just wondering and trying to figure it out.
But I commented out the vector component assignments in the move_ship function.
The mv.x=...; mv.y=...; and mv.z=...;

and reassigned the ent_create command-function
in the function main() to

ent_create("RED_DRAGON.mdl", vector(-310, 0,-100),move_ship);

and it seems these intial vector component values are placed in the VECTOR* mv[3] mv.x,mv.y,mv.z automatically.
Where I don't have to make the assignments. Cause using the key_w and key_s functions work properly at the new vector assignments
given in the ent_create command-function.

new start up positions at run time....

cemetarycat you are a cat. The code works fine, that will get me going. Thank you and all the other people that helped me.
I am sorry about the two posting. I will make sure that never happen again. So I think this part of my learnning of c-lite is over with.
renny

its cool if you double post.
And also if you need or want to put emphasis
on something or clarify something.

I don't get worked up over those kinds of things.
I have cat scratch fever and get worked up on learning and using 3d Game Studio.

cheers,

hey, cat
I know, 20 years in the army and 17 years working for the govt., I went through some very bad times, so I don't sweet the small stuff. But as you age there more things that you worry about, other that what other people are doing.
I sent you a few things. I hope it will help you.
renny

soz to say cat, ure wrong it does matter if he double posts. What if every member double posts , or just every newbie , the forum will be flooded. And those that try and help will have to read through double posts.

haha
and LoL!
rather read the doubly posts to get back on track and for further clarification.
But if the forums do get flooded...
I'll be building the new Noahs' Ark.
And you're invited too..two by two.


and sadsack, thanks for the emails sent.
especially on the 2d tutorials.

and get to get back on topic....
I added more code for the controls for the other 2 vector componets. The y and z vector components as well. Even added my babylon pic and change the Red Dragons' starting position too.





cheers to both

Quoting Blade28081991.

Albeit, flaming between A7 users in the "Lite-C Programming" forum category may not be a bad thing, be wary of misinterpretations (or don't).
Quoting cemetarycat.

That probably just means, that the user cemetarycat, that entity alone, is not severely irritated or concerned about the one specific instance of 'double posting' in scope.
However, as Blade280281991 might have suggested, 'double posting' is and / or should be 'frowned upon' as a bad practice, and new users, are and / or should be notified about the perception of the practice.

Potentially, 'double posting' does produce clutter.

Of course, these forums seem to have a nearly unacceptable level of fault, for memory and posts, and 'much' may seem 'lost' anyway.

haha


I'll let the mods worry and take care of it.
But posts and things do get lost in the memory.

Quoting cemetarycat.

That's probably a good stance, and it is likely a stance that many others take.

However, the mods are not paid, and some have 'variable levels of activity', so others users might offer helpful, polite indications, when unfavorable practices are encountered.
In fact, users which tactfully offer indications, might be seen as performing some form of service.
But that might rarely be the case.


In reference to the code posted by THIS and how vectors are declared in Lite-C
VECTOR* mv_v1;
as opposed to how they are declared in C-Script:
var mv_v1[3];
'I' claim fault for posting erroneous code.

The fault itself was seemingly brought to light, after examining a sample provided by cemetarycat (above).
Moreover, relevant information is found in some manuals.

This post is a sample of 'clutter'.

first, to claim fault for posting erroneous code.
Its okay and cool. We all learn by trial and error.
Don't worry about it.

but to double post...to re-emphasize what I said and to clarify. Its cool by me. And also I'm not really that concerned with people who think and act like they are moderators and admistrators. When in fact they are not. And I don't like pushy or bossy people. In the end, we are all members and users in this forum.
Again, I let the mods and the adminstrator(s) worry about it and take care of it.

You and others can have the final say but I stand by what I think and share.

and to quote a very good friend of mine:

"Different is hard. Different is lonely. Different is trouble for you only. Different is heartache. Different is pain. Be true to yourself. I'd rather be different than be the same.
And the fip side of the coin:

Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities; remember, things could be worse. You could be one of them! "


and oh my!
I forgot this, everybody.....

Halo Flame Shields On!
haha and true.
