PlaceAtMe problem

[silverflasher]

hi all, this is my first post here..

i'm italian, so im sorry for my bad english. :)

 

i've a big and strange problem..i want to place a fireplace on a item (firewood01) when i drop it to the ground-when i click on it with torch in my hand-.

all works, but at the "placeatme" script, the new object "fly" over the ground.. the z axis is not the same of the firewood..some help?

there is a way to get the actual xyz pos of my firewood?

because if I grab and drag the firewood, the xyz pos remain the old..

 

tnx in advance..t.t

I don't really know what your talking about but try looking straight forward on level ground when you do it and see if that works. If your talking about just dropping a campfire using a bat file or console than yes it has to be level ground and you must look forward.

i'm sorry, its all by papyrus.

this is the script on the firewood01:

	fuocomedio = fuoco.placeatme(faloMedio.GetBaseObject())
	lucefuoco.moveto(lucefuoco,afZOffset = 0)
	utility.wait(1)
	fuoco.disable(true)
	utility.wait(1.5)
	fuoco.delete()
elseif (step == 8)
	fuocospento = fuocomedio.placeatme(faloSpento.GetBaseObject())

	lucefuoco.delete()
	utility.wait(1.5)
	fuocospento.delete()
	step = 0
	UnregisterForUpdateGameTime()
endif
EndEvent

 

when the "fuoco" is placed, the zaxis is not the same of firewood01..

i hope that u understand :D

here: fuoco = self.placeatme(AE_fuocoSemplice.GetBaseObject(),abInitiallyDisabled = true)

there is some "update x-y-z-position" function,or a way to do that?

I believe you're on to something:

fuoco.setangle(0 , 0,  0)

[silverflasher]

I believe you're on to something:

fuoco.setangle(0 , 0,  0)

that "set" the angle rotation..so is not "upside down" or rotated in a strange psition.

i need to "get" the current x-y-z position of my firewood01 (self) .

something to call, a registerupdate func for the position, or some event that detect any object shift, by drag and drop..

[Ghaunadaur]

Some function like this?

 

GetPositionX

GetPositionY

GetPositionZ

 

The position can be set with SetPosition or MoveTo().

[silverflasher]

http://www.creationkit.com/ApplyHavokImpulse_-_ObjectReference

says:

"GetPosition and GetAngle will return the old position. If you need those informations, a workaround is to have a dummy, invisible, object and use MoveToNode to move it to one of your real object's nodes, then get the position of your dummy object."

i do not really understand..

possibly, if the fire still floats above the firewood, try changing this line:

 

	fuoco.SetPosition(X, Y, Z)	; sets the fire to the exact coordinates of the firewood

 

to something like:

 

	fuoco.SetPosition(X, Y, Z - 20)

 

.... and adjust the number (20) as necessary until the fire is positioned correctly on the ground.

[silverflasher]

i will try now..X,Y,Z are "native" vars?

 

 

edit

not work, anyway..:S

the fire fly.

and the Z-axis of firweood depend where you have drop it, then make "Z - 20" is a hack that could have not sense :S
