Hello everyone,
I am trying to spawn my characters within a box, using the node Random Point in Bounding Box.
I want them to be spawned randomly in XY axis, but I want to be aligned in Z axis…
I have been trying it but it seems I am not doing it properly
What am I doing wrong? am I using the right tool even?
Please let me understand what I am missing here, thank you!
Just make this fixed
You can either put a constant parameter in there, or use the Z world coordinate of the box.
ahhhhh, ok!
what if I wanted to have the Z coordinate of the bottom face of the box?
I tried this formula to get the Z coord of the bottom face:
Get World Location Z value + Get Scaled Box extent Z value = Spawn actor Location Z
but then the spawned actors go to unexpected places…
Also, when if I add a constant value, is the value from the center of the box? or center of the top face of the box?
thank you!
Yes, that’s what I meant!
thank you for the precision! you rock!
Sorry, there is a different issue in the BP i previously presented.
So, aligning the actors do work.
But whenever I move the box away from the origin of the map, the spawned actors move out of the box. I don’t get why…
Box is at the origin
Box moved a bit away from the origin, so the sphere are spawned outside
it seems there is a multiplier to the spheres outboxing phenomenon.
The BP is exatctly the same as I showed before…
I just tested this, and it’s fine
Of course, an easy way of limiting the Z, is just to make the box flat
