RE: [Plib-users] ssgHOT question ... solved

[McEvoy, N. <nic...@ds...>]

Duh ... stupid me ...

When I'm in 1st person view my player ssgEntity is not in the scene

...HOT calculation works fine

When I switch to external view I add my player ssgEntity to the scene

...now HOT calculation (which starts *inside* the player object) hits my
player ssgEntity object ... giving me my height above my players feet
(actually its a space-craft so it doesn't have feet ... but I do digress)
!!!

My solution is obviously to clear the traversal mask bits when I load my
player !!!

	pPlayerObject->clrTraversalMaskBits(SSGTRAV_ISECT|SSGTRAV_HOT);

Now I get the correct Height of Terrain ... in both views !!!

So that weird problem was just me after all ... now I'll just slink away and
hide :-)
