hi
i want to know how do i name a toucher in the script "ontouch{|toucher|$curEvalGroup.name="rider"}
suppose the toucher name is bullet and it touches the object with the script, it gets the name rider.This happens only when "bullet" touches the object with the script

PLEASE help me!!

That worked but this worked better:
in the onTick box of the player
"if
frame<1
then
setVar("Health",2)
end
getVar("Health")
if
getVar("Health")==2
then
Sketchup.active_model.entities[0].text="Health=2"
end
if
getVar("Health")==1
then
Sketchup.active_model.entities[0].text="Health=1"
end
if
getVar("Health")==0
then
Sketchup.active_model.entities[0].text="Mission Failed!"
end"
And in the scripted box of the player
"ontouch{|toucher|setVar("Health",getVar("Health")-1)}"
the health gets reduced when anything touches the player.
And this is my problem !
i want it to be reduced only when an object named "bullet" touches it.
please tell me if you know how to sort it out

but what??
please tell me if you know .

hi
i want to know how to assign different values to variables on different touches.
(Eg):If box A touches box B then a variable,say "Rider" is given value of 1.
When box A touches box B the second time,"Rider" is set to value 2 and so on till the final value,say 10 is reached(i.e till box B is touched 10 times and till "Rider"==10)
please tell me if anyone knows .

can anyone tell me how to set different values to variables on multiple touches?
(Eg):Box A touches Box B, then a variable ,say 'Rider' is set to 1.When Box A touches Box B second time,'Rider' is set to 2 and so on till the final value is reached.

Thankyou so much!!!!
it really worked !
thanks a lot

this is the file.I downloaded it from 3D Warehouse.Try makinga joint in he model anywhere.It shall disappear automatically.And you can't get it back!I have tried every way i know (like Edit-Unhide-All,View-Hidden Geometry,etc.).But nothing works!!!
This model is by Mr. K. It's name is "delta squad,improved".
Not only this!All other physics - containing - models which i have downloaded from the warehouse have the same problem!

delta_squad.skp

data is lost in import files (sketchyphysics).
when i import a file, then joint names,emitter and thruster settings,etc. are lost!
Why does this happen and how can i stop it??

i also had the same problems at times.I would advice you to change their axis from Edit Group option and see what happens.Well i never found a solution to my problem.

Thanks but it dosen't work!
All the joints i the model are hidden and when i make new joints, they too hide automatically!!

Thanks for help.

how do we see the geometry that is hidden(like joints,etc.) in models downloaded fron
3D Warehouse?

i am new to sp and i want to know the method\script to make a health variable(like in real games)
for a 1st person shooter which gets reduced only when an emitter object(bullet most probably) touches the shooter.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!
