another error, trying to call function with vector #109962 01/30/07 04:59 01/30/07 04:59

I'm no professional as I'm still learning C/C++, but that doesn't seem compatible to me. Formerly known as The Matrix - ICQ 170408644 I've been here for much longer than most people think.

However one idea that comes to mind is you are using a Var vector and passing it off as a vector vector. And that is as bad as that time my mom found out it wasn't the neighbor's dog killing our kittens, it was me.

Thomas_Nitschke Senior Developer T Joined: Jun 2003 Posts: 1,017 Germany	How about using Code: var[] * hitStrength in the function definition instead? Just guessing... Formerly known as The Matrix - ICQ 170408644 I've been here for much longer than most people think. So where's my "Expert" status?
