This works, thanks. I’m just trying to make my puzzles accurate as yours.
Btw, what size is your shots? mine’s are 0.2 for x, y, z dimensions.
my puzzles:
Also, at .20 in your video, the shot whizzes over your red cube…
whereas in mine, if I’m extremely close to, but not touching the shot, it vanishes
Need the shots to disappear if they come into contact with the cube’s dimensions.
~0.258 is a dimension of your cube. That’s where you can use “get dimension” / 2 instead of 0.05
Tried but sadly shot’s don’t disappear even though they touch cube’s dimensions.
incompatible puzzles (and wrong logic in your head). it’s not possible to measure distance between a number and an object. it’s not possible to compare a boolean value with a numeric value…
Fair enough
The first puzzle set is working. You just need to replace 0.05 with 0.25. And why are you hiding the player object instead of bullets?
I hid the player object to test if the distance between puzzles were indeed working
I’m trying to get dimensions of an object, to calculate when other objects that comes into contact with said dimensions.
On the other hand, using “distance between” puzzles is inaccurate in determining contact between objects, even if the number for this puzzle is bigger.
The browser game I’m working on has characters of irregular shape you see. Imagine a Blender’s suzanne. Not basic shapes like in the above example. If I use distance between puzzles, it’s inaccurate to calculate effect if contact unless I get dimensions of both objects
kdv, thanks for your answer, yes it works and I appreciate it. It’s just that when I either space out the cloned units or make said units move, the shots are fired a distance away from each unit like here.
Any way for the individual shots to appear in front of each unit before said shot is fired? Regardless of position or moving?
Again, your original answer is indeed an important game-changer
Moving clones fire shots:
When “change” is set to -3
your questions are very specific to your puzzle and your own logic flows…making it very hard, at least for me, to dive in and find a quick answer.
My initial guess is the logic timing….do you have a timing map or visual that shows all the things you have going on with all these time events? Once you start programming based on time..things can get lost, missed etc making it hard to diagnose.
True, timing especially can throw intended events off. Have to keep this in mind
Have you added print to console statements within your loops to diagonose whats firing when and if its ocurring at the right time?
New zip file for puzzles with print to console(F12). Sadly it didn’t say anything.

The puzzles (ignore the ones disabled):
kdv, thanks for your answer, it gave me an idea to simply adjust the relevant vertices’ location for shape key value 0, after issuing new shape key value. It works. I learnt a lot from your answer as a byproduct.
Btw, do you know how to activate individual clones in a list, only when certain conditions are met? Problem is, when one clone in list is activated, other clones do not trigger even though conditions are met for other clones as well
Sharing for everyone

Wait, where is the change position puzzle to determine the distance moved?
Ok, actually I think I’ve figured out the problem – change the shape key from 0 to 0.5:

Now my only problem is that the shape key in verge3d is black at 0.5, yet when it increases, it switches to its intended color. Why?
