Need Help With Collision

conrad74

I want the head of my actor to be the only part of the body that detects a collision with another object. The actor is constantly moving so the collision for the head needs to be moving with the actor. How do I go about doing this?

Anybody have a better solution? Thanks!!!!

I linked my main actor to a smaller invisible actor that has the collision rules.

There was a forum example of making one actor follow another, I will see if I can find it again.

Basically create two attributes in the scene:
TargetX, and TargetY

Then have one actor modify that attribute to be the same as it's X & Y

Then make the other actor modify its own attribute to be the same as the Target attributes.

Worked for me. So far ... But I'm still a total newb.

This video is exactly what I am looking for. Brings up another question. Is there a way to destroy the "player actor" with the "head collision detection?" For example: if a bullet hits the"head," destroy "the player." ??? Thank!
