Constraint Actuator -- Orientation: Blender 3D Game Engine



Logic Brick Index
Main index for actuators, controllers and sensors
 

Location
Creates an area which the Game Object can't leave.
 
Distance
Sets the distance the game object has to be from a surface
 
Orientation
Constraints the orientation of a Game Object axis to a World axis vector
 
Force Field
Creates a buffer zone along one axis of the game object.
 
   






 
 
1.  Orientation
Constraints the orientation of a Game Object axis to a World axis vector
  • The orientation constraint forces the selected axis of the game object to point in a direction of a vector in World coordinates. 
  • Example:
Select the game object x-axis.
Set the orientation constraint to the World z-axis ([0.0, 0.0, 1.0]).   

The game object will flip on it's side so that the game object's x-axis points in the direction of World z-axis.
   
2.  damp
Amount to delay (in frames) the responce to the constraint.
  • Range:  0 to 100
  
3.  Direction
Game Object axis direction to be constrained.
  • None = Don't constrain the orientation of the game object.
  • X axis = Orient game object x-axis to vector.
  • Y axis = Orient game object y-axis to vector.
  • Z axis = Orient game object z-axis to vector.
  
4.  X   Y   Z
The X, Y and Z components of the Reference world vector.
  • X:  Cosine of the angle the vector points in the World X direction.
  • Y:  Cosine of the angle the vector points in the World Y direction.
  • Z:  Cosine of the angle the vector points in the World Z direction.
  • Range:  -1.00 to 1.00
  
5.  time
Amount of time (in frames) for the constraint actuator to remain active.
  • Range:  0 to 100
  • 0 = infinite time.
 
6.  Min
Minimum angle (degrees) to maintain with the target direction
  • Range:  0.00 to 180.00
  
7.  Max
Maximum angle (degrees) to maintain with the target direction
  • Range:  0.00 to 180.00
