how to detect wheatern character under water or not
hi,

i want to check weather the character is under a lake/river or not to set him on top to let him swim.

How can i do that cause water is no Game::obj and lakes and rivers arents detected with World.underWater(pos,depth)

and another question how du i acces the water area of a lake to set the depth

Ctrl+Alt+RMB will allow you to set the depth of the water for lakes and rivers (you can find this and other helpful controls for settings bodies of water in the wiki)

I'm not familiar with the coding aspect for swimming in water but I thought I saw something on the forum at one time about this. I can't find it now but perhaps these threads concerning gravity and up/down movement will help start you in the right direction?

thx for the links very interesting also for further development.

but the most important thing is how i can detect the collision between the char and the water surface

anybody else some idea?

thx, it works my fold.

wanted to set watr depth later but my characters fell through the water and the force is already set so also turning off gravity didnt stop him.

it works fine now
