Help with Arraymaker & OverlapSphere

[derkoi]

Hi,

I'm trying to destroy objects that are in a blast radius in my game. I'm using the OverlapSphere action found here.

I've set everything up so when the bomb detonates the array gets a list of objects in the radius. What I'm unsure about is how to send a message to all FSM on those objects in the array?

Can anyone help please?

uhm,

 That sounds like a job for a new custom action for playmaker

 for now, simply use the "ArrayListGetNext" and send an event to each. that will do fine as well.

Thanks, That seems to work fine however I've noticed the action doesn't seem to pick up animated characters. Is there something I may be missing?

Hi,

 that action iterate through the array content. Can you elaborate, cause I don't understand where would be the problem. Are you properly storing the GameObject int the array?

The overlapSphere action is not adding animated characters to the array list. All other objects are added fine & can be destroyed apart from the enemy characters which makes me think it's something to do with them being an animated skinned mesh?

Hi,

 I am not sure, It seems you are getting the wrong reference, ArrayMaker only store GameObjects, not components. this might be the problem.

 also, what do you mean by "animated character"? what component is it made of?

The characters are gameobjects. 

The animated characters are 3d models with animation data on them & Biped skeleton data.

Hi,

 I think your problem is elsewhere, like you are not passing at all a gameObject reference  ( null ) , or something. If you can send me a repro scene, that would be great.
