cphysics_query_interface

Usage:

Usage: game.physics_query_interface:{method}

This type encapsulates all tracing functionalities.

trace_ray

Function

Performs a regular trace ray call. Skips local player.

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
ray	ray	The ray/shape
from	vector	The starting position
to	vector	The ending position

Returns

Type	Description
game_trace	The resulting trace object

Example

local ray = ray_t()
local from = vector(0, 0, 0)
local to = vector(100, 100, 100)

local trace = game.physics_query_interface:trace_ray(ray, from, to)

---

trace_movement

Function

Performs a trace ray call using the player movement mask. Skips local player.

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
ray	ray	The ray/shape
from	vector	The starting position
to	vector	The ending position

Returns

Type	Description
game_trace	The resulting trace object

Example

local player = entities.get_local_pawn()
local ray = ray_t() do
    local collision = player.m_pCollision:get_as('client.dll', 'CCollisionProperty')
    ray:set_hull(collision.m_vecMins:get(), collision.m_vecMaxs:get())
end

local from = player:get_abs_origin()
local to = player:get_abs_origin() + player:get_abs_velocity()

local trace = game.physics_query_interface:trace_movement(ray, from, to)

trace_grenade

Function

thrower	base_entity	The entity throwing the grenade, gets skipped
ignore_breakable	boolean	Ignores any breakable objects if true

Returns

Type	Description
game_trace	The resulting trace object

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
from	vector	The starting position
to	vector	The ending position
thrower	base_entity	The entity throwing the grenade, gets skipped

Returns

Type	Description
game_trace	The resulting trace object
