[Visualpython-users] make_trail bug

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

There's a bug in the make_trail option for leaving a trail when an
object moves. Turns out that you have to update pos for the trail to
be generated; updating just pos.x doesn't work:

ball = sphere(make_trail = True)
x = .01
ball.pos.x += x # does not leave a trail
ball.pos += vector(x,0,0) # this works correctly
