Picking with boundingBox broken?

[aWeirdo]

Hey,

Is scene.pick with fastcheck broken?

i want to increase the picking area of some meshes, without having to make boxes around them or anything like that.

so i recalled there's a fastcheck option in the scene.pick function, which is used to pick boundingboxes, but now i can't seem to get it working; 

If you click on skull mesh, it is picked, if you click on boundingbox without hitting the actual mesh, it isn't picked.

Any ideas?

fastCheck is working as intended but not as you expect i think
It is not performing a bounding box only check. It is just like the ordinary picking but it returns the first hit and not the nearest/best hit.

Correct

i think i was misunderstood,

but the main question would be;

how come it doesn't return a hit when clicking on a boundingbox?
 

also, comment from babylon.max.js

/// <param name="fastCheck">Launch a fast check only using the bounding boxes. Can be set to null.</param>

[GameMonetize]

The fast check using bounding boxes to invalidate candidate. Not to validate them.

@aWeirdo did you find any workaround for picking only bounding boxes?

I remember I once implemented such a function, which had a single problem - you don't get the intersected point in the pickingInfo, as it is impossible to calculate.

I will try finding it and add it as a suggestion for a quickPick function.

Hi @Steffen 
This seems to have slipped my mind, sorry!

i created a pickingBox,

like so; http://playground.babylonjs.com/#7CTLZM#1
