Simple Roaming ralph problem

Scripting Issues
1

Hi everybody,
I have this problem with roaming ralph
I create a simple plan, and I put ralph on it

self.environ = loader.loadModel("models/square")
          prato=loader.loadTexture("img/prato.jpg")
          self.environ.setTexture(prato)
          self.environ.reparentTo(render)
          self.environ.setPos(0, self.ENVDIST,0)
          self.environ.setP(self.ENVP)
          self.environ.setScale(self.ENVSCALE)

[...]

self.woody = Actor("models/ralph",
                                 {"run":"models/ralph-run",
                                  "walk":"models/ralph-walk"})
          self.woody.reparentTo(self.environ)
          self.woody.setScale(0.0005,0.0005,0.0005)
          self.woody.setP(90)

I reparent ralph to my environment. Then I set his pitch to 90 in order to see him awake.
Now panda3d get confused and roll and head has the same result
this is what I see
what you see is the result of the performing of these commands


if(self.keys['woodyleft']==1):
            self.woody.setH(self.woody.getH()+1)
        if(self.keys['woodyright']==1):
            self.woody.setH(self.woody.getH()-1)

he simply does not perform the head action, it seems to perform a rool. If I change the previous line with setR the result is exactly the same :frowning:

thank you
:slight_smile:

seems like your environ model is sorta strange. anyway.
try self.woody.setH(self.woody, 1) and
self.woody.setH(self.woody, -1)
this will set his heading relative to himself. not relative to his parent(which would be the environ model in your case)
