Entity is still inactive

[Bananenfreak]

Heyho,

I´ve got a Problem. I want to create a game and used the way to move Entities from the "FPSFirstPerson.pb". So, it is functional without physics, but if I attach a physics Body to my Entity, my Entity will be inactive. So, no Problem, I thought. I could set my entity to "active" I thought. Wrong, we have no Attribute for that (SetEntityAttribute()).
I don´t know, why the character in the FPS-example is active all the time... And I find nothing in the code in this direction.
So, could anyone help me, why my Entity is inactive all the time? And is there a solution for this?

Greets,

Bananenfreak

I used

Code: Select all

SetEntityAttribute(\bodyEnt, #PB_Entity_LinearSleeping, 0)
    SetEntityAttribute(\bodyEnt, #PB_Entity_AngularSleeping, 0)

.
Now my entity is active all the time, but is rotating
I only want a character like in the FPS-example. Not a static guy and not a rotating guy....

Here´s an example showing the Problem.
Is anyone able to solve this Problem, so the ninja walks really and not only the Animation is played?

I am online with my smartphone, so I can't test it. But why this should work? #Pb_Relative is the standart value and so there is no difference?!

EDIT:
I tested it. It works; So there is a Problem with MoveEntity() and the flag #PB_Relative. I´m not posting anything in our bugsection until Comtois confirmed this.
