getPosition(object)
Get the current object position in 3d space.
-
object: object to operate on
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.
