Hello,

I tried to make an EntityBox working but I couldn't success.
Could we have a quick example, something simple just to see it running!
Thx a lot ! :)

I think you use the x,y,z params to specify a corner of the box (don't think it matters which one) and then from that position you specify width, height and depth. So, to specify a box for a blitz cube (which is 2x2x2 blitz units in size), you'd want something like this, I think:

EntityBox entity,-1,-1,-1,2,2,2

Just to make shure that you know, entitybox is for collisions, the box is invisible, and you will need to setup collisions for it to work, just to make shure that you know.

question: big10p, and eBusiness, are you guys like good friends or something ? Every post, I see one of you in, the other posts also. Just something I noticed.. Not that it is bad, because you both have helped me greatly! But it just hit me..

No, he's just stalking me - which is quite a feat when you consider we live in different countries! :P

It's just that big10p have a far too large ego, so he had to create me in order to prevent an overflow. Now I'm about stuffed, so I guess we will have to learn programming a third time :P
