boarding the ship

Qppralke · 03-12-06, 12:06 PM

I'm working on a mission where two ships supposed to be boarding togather and exchange cargo .

The case is to position them so close to each other - that it looks realistic.

I have tried two different approches:

I switched off the colision detection using script. And then applied another script when approach trigger was activated.

The trigger was activated when aproaching platform was tracking the other platform, and range was 0.01 (can you make it any less than this ? I should acctually try . . . ) Than script was setting proper speed and bearing for chasing platform to stop.

It did not worked well . . . .

Another approach was using the waypoints , and it works a lot better.

Any other suggestions ? ?
