I'm trying to get the location of my player and the ball entity on my level so I can decide if he can move with the ball or not but the vec_dist function causes a crash in the action at the start of the game.
Second problem is that if I don't use the vec_dist, the ball moves with the player but appears at it's original location immediately I release the buttons I assigned to move the ball's x and y positions. Is it because I'm changing x and y positions directly and somehow not making them permanent? How do I set the ball to stop returning to it's former position. I need to make every current location it's location.
I know I can.

All the entities are added in WED and assigned their actions. The vec_dist always crashes when it is called any function in which I add it.
I know I can.

okay Here, it's supposed to check the distance between player and the ball and if close enough, call the necessary function but it the action crashes at start
action theBall()
{
set(my, SHADOW);
phent_settype(my, PH_RIGID, PH_SPHERE);
phent_setmass(my, 1, PH_SPHERE);
phent_setfriction(my,90);
phent_setelasticity(my,75,100);
phent_setdamping(my,30,5);
phent_addvelcentral(my,vector(10,10,0));
ph_setgravity(vector(0,0,-500));
my.emask |= ENABLE_FRICTION;
while(1){
if(vec_dist(my.x, player.x) < 20){
move_with_ball();
}
if(key_x){
kick();
}
wait(1);
}
}
I know I can.
