Is it possible to turn off entities, not remove them, but turn them off until they are needed again???

Any help would be great!!!!!

What do you want to do? You can make them invisible with set(entity pointer,INVISIBLE) or maybe you are looking for the DYNAMIC-flag.

my.flags |= INVISIBLE;
set(my,INVISIBLE); // does the same thing as the line above, chose what you like more

Thanks for your quick response guys, yeah I get the "INVISIBLE" thing, or perhaps the "HIDE" but they still take up processor time don't they???? or am I mistaken??

I just thought it would be good to turn them off and on when required, but it seems that its not possible???

Thanks

you can also manually store their properties, and destroy
them.

When they are needed, you create new ones with the old
properties.

This can lead to null-pointer errors though.

If you need this jsut for ambient objects in a scene
(like grass, trees etc) its better to use the LOD methods.

Well the INVISIBLE seems to work ok actually, frees up the K's.... thanks guys....
