[Visualpython-users] make_trail bug From: Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...> - 2011-08-15 19:51:35

There's a bug in the make_trail option for leaving a trail when an object moves. Turns out that you have to update pos for the trail to be generated; updating just pos.x doesn't work: ball = sphere(make_trail = True) x = .01 ball.pos.x += x # does not leave a trail ball.pos += vector(x,0,0) # this works correctly Bruce Sherwood
