solved LoadMesh and add boundingBox

[Gutgiut]

Hi,

I'm starting programming with BABYLONJS and loving it.

I've watched MVA - Babylonjs course and have a question, how can you load a mesh and add to it a boundingbox so you can get it's size and also control colisions

My code looks like this:

// load mesh
engine.displayLoadingUI();
BABYLON.SceneLoader.ImportMesh("", "models/motor_boat/", "motor_boat.babylon", scene, function (yacht) {
    engine.hideLoadingUI();
    yacht[0].name = "boat";

// boat dimentions
	var size = yacht[0].getBoundingInfo().boundingBox.vectors.extendSize;
	console.log(size);
});

console prints undefined

What am I doing wrong?

Tks

getBoundingInfo does not account for children.

You might need to rely on getHierarchyBoundingVectors in your case, I suspect that boat is having children.

Hi Sebavan,

Thanks for your answer. This is what I was looking for.
