GetPosition

Revision as of 18:02, 4 February 2014

Get the current object position in 3d space.

objectpos = getPosition(object)

Then you can use your object coordinates like this :

objectpos[1] : X position

objectpos[2] : Y position

objectpos[3] : Z position

Example 1, Press Space to display the X position of the object in maratis console window :

   object = getObject("object") 
   -- Scene update
   function onSceneUpdate()
       objectpos = getPosition(object) -- you can rename objectpos whatever you want
       if isKeyPressed("SPACE") then print(objectpos[1]) end
   end

See setPosition(object) function for a more advanced usage.
