registerOnPhysicsCollide With Any

[Pryme8]

Is there a way to fire a function anytime a specific body touches any other physicsImposter?

I got it for the imposters that are in the scene when the event is bound, but there will be situations where I need it to be more dynamic.

mesh.body.registerOnPhysicsCollide(scene.getPhysicsEngine()._impostors, hit)

That is a question for @RaananW

The trouble is unregistered it as well o_O, but ehh  I think I found a "work around" for now.

Come on my buddy, haven't you used collision detection? then account for the physics. Simple.

Yeah, how the hell did I fire callbacks on every collision?  You are right I did figure this out already I'm just drawing a blank now and I don't think I have access to the script anymore.  Do I still have ftp access to your server?

[dbawel]

There's no current access, but I can zip and send the app to you. Message me your email, as I have a new computer and haven't updated my contacts.

god, sorry for the late response. Any luck getting to a point you are happy with?

[Pryme8]

Yes sir ^_^, but still dont have a truly Dynamic solution.

[RaananW]

i might need you to explain it again, i didnt understand what you meant in the first post. Sorry

[Pryme8]

So how do I make the 'mesh.body.registerOnPhysicsCollide()' function work without providing an array or body for the function to fire in response to.

Basically just like a global every time a physics body touches any other physics body do this method, there has to be one I just cant find it.

 

like a
physicsEngine.registerOnAnyCollide()

couldnt you just provide an array of all the meshes in the scene then.  Use scene.meshes??

to make it would for each one just

scene.meshes.foreach(mesh)=>{

if(mesh.body.registerOnPhysicsCollide(scene.meshes)){

console.log(mesh.name);

}

 

}

 

 

sorry this was kind of rush but why not that, seems general enough, right?

edit: i know you didnt want to put an array in but this is the next best thing right? gotta reference them somehow

edit2: there is probably a better way i just dont know of

[Pryme8]

I already do that, basically with the mesh.body.registerOnPhysicsCollide(scene.getPhysicsEngine()._impostors, hit)
but I have times where the imposters change quite often so the array from scene.getPhysicsEngine()._impostors is only be correct for a short period of time.

I found a work around but figured it the collisions are firing through the engine when ever a any imposter touches that there should be a way to tie into that event.
