Assigning accelerometer values to attributes

Rob2

I can assign arbitrary values to attributes, just as I would variables in code but can't seem to do the same with the values coming back from the accelerometer...any ideas? Is it because they are not integers?

what are you trying to accomplish? Grabbing a constant stream of values from the accelerometer or just grabbing them once?

to assign them once:

when actor is touched
change game.CustomAttribute = game.Accelerometer.X
change game.CustomAttribute = game.Accelerometer.Y
change game.CustomAttribute = game.Accelerometer.Z

for a constant stream:

every .1 seconds
change game.CustomAttribute = game.Accelerometer.X
change game.CustomAttribute = game.Accelerometer.Y
change game.CustomAttribute = game.Accelerometer.Z

Just make sure you use the expression editor to choose your attributes and the game accelerometer information, if you just type it in it will not work.

Excellent, thanks very much for your time.

I am very much in the exploration stage but certainly want to work out good smoothing of the accelerometer.
