Hello all,
I 've a problem with the edit object actuator.
I want to create a tile map game (like starcraft %| 
), and I think the best (and fastest ) developpement solution consists in creating all model units in an inactive layer, and calling instances of them as much as needed during the game.
First, I did a simple test to see how it works. A script, linked to an empty object with an edit object actuator, is supposed to perform generations of some objects from an inactive layer.
I used the setObject method in my script. The problem is when I quit after object is created, Blender 2.34 crashes with an âabnormal program termination programâ.
The console sys Exception exceptions.TypeError: âargument 1 must be KX_GameObject, not strâ inâgarbage collectionâ ignored
Here is my (simple 
%| ) code :
import GameLogic
toto = GameLogic.getCUrrentController().getActuators()[0]
#the edit object actuator
toto.setObject(âCylinderâ)#a stuff in another layer
GameLogic.addActiveActuator(toto,1)
Whatâs going wrong?? ?
Yeah, it was almost like the problem I had. Blender 2.34 still has some bugs and I guess this is one of them. The logic brick edit object only adds the default object that you put into the parameter with no problem. But if you specify another object in python then you get an error.
:Z !). Do you have another solution to create an object during the game depending of a âpre-existing modelâ ?
