Wall or object between two points

[Moustache]

Is it possible to check if there is a wall or an other object between two points?

I have changed my question. I hope someone can and will help me

Sure is possible
Use this code:

Code: Select all

	trace=bullettrace(point1,point2,false,undefined);

	if(trace["position"]!=point2)
               //there is something between the objects
              else
               //no wall

Thanks
That works perfect

sexier code:

Code: Select all

if (bullettrace(point1,point2,false,undefined)["position"] != point2)

I understand that. But the first one is clearer imo.

[megazor]

ye sure clearer a bit but size wins ^^ coz mine isnt that messed.

it doesnt really matter which you use, unless you really care for gsc size... (...)

I would personally use the first code. It is just simply better practice to use one function at a time, instead of nesting a function inside a function., although both will work just as well as the other.

my code calls bullettrace function only one time, so for this case mine works at least not slower than the first code

Use this code:

Code: Select all

	trace=bullettrace(point1,point2,false,undefined);

	if(trace["position"]!=point2)
               //there is something between the objects
              else
               //no wall

Go put the trace= stuff on the trace position in the if loop. This is what you get:

Code: Select all

if(bullettrace(point1,point2,false,undefined)["position"]!=point2)
                //wall
else
                //no wall

exactly your code

i dont understand. "if loop"? lol

They are exactly the same code. One is just more aesthetically pleasing than the other.
