Now youre supposed to be able to send the unit somewhere by clicking on a spot on the map. So I need the world positions of the mouse. Theres something about mouse_pos3d in the manual, but I don't really get it to work. Code: VECTOR pos; if (mouse_right) { vec_set(pos,mouse_pos3d); } thanks already

Code:

if (mouse_right) 
{
   vec_set (mouse_click, mouse_dir3d); 
   vec_normalize(mouse_click, 4000); 
   vec_add (mouse_click, mouse_pos3d); 		
   c_trace (camera.x, mouse_click, IGNORE_MODELS); 
   vec_set( mouse_click, target );
   ent_create ("position1.mdl", target.x, NULL);
}

I use Lite-c
