[FIXED] Find closest object with tag action returns wrong value for distance
(1/1)
pneill:
Pretty simple bug. The Find closest object with tag action returns the sqrMagnitude instead of the actual distance. Makes sense to use this as a way to determine what object is the closest, but it should then calculate and return the actual distance.

Hi,
Do you need an action that does that? I can provide the quick fix if you want. Laos I noticed that if you leab "untagged" then it doesn't work, where it should simply scan the hierarchy I would think.
Bye,
Jean
pneill:
No need for a quick fix. I wrote my own. :)
Just thought it might be something to fix in a future release. Drove me nuts because I couldn't figure out why I kept getting different answers between that action and the get distance action
jeanfabre:
Yes,
I get that quite often actually, the fact that an action script is hidden from the main workflow has this down side, I had this big time with the time scale action where I assumed it was just affecting the timeScale, but it also affect the fixDeltaTime, and I was reverting back the time scale by script, the result was a very very slow frame rate, like 3FPS, so I though something broke in my physic set up or a script was going mad... profiler was crashing, I could not find the source, until I had to take it down to pieces until I nailed it...
Bye,
Jean
