CPhysicsQueryInterface

Usage:

Usage: game.physicsQueryInterface:{method}

This type encapsulates all tracing functionalities.

TraceRay

Function

Performs a regular trace ray call. Skips local player.

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
ray	Ray_t	The ray/shape
from	Vector	The starting position
to	Vector	The ending position
ignoreWorld	boolean	If true, will ignore the world and only trace against entities.

Returns

Type	Description
CGameTrace	The resulting trace object

Example

local ray = Ray_t()
local from = Vector(0, 0, 0)
local to = Vector(100, 100, 100)

local trace = game.physicsQueryInterface:TraceRay(ray, from, to)

---

TraceMovement

Function

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

Arguments

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

Returns

Type	Description
CGameTrace	The resulting trace object

Example

local player = entities.GetLocalPawn()
local ray = Ray_t() do
    local collision = player.m_pCollision:GetAs('client.dll', 'CCollisionProperty')
    ray:set_hull(collision.m_vecMins:Get(), collision.m_vecMaxs:Get())
end

local from = player:GetAbsOrigin()
local to = player:GetAbsOrigin() + player:GetAbsVelocity()

local trace = game.physicsQueryInterface:TraceMovement(ray, from, to)

---

TraceGrenade

Function

Performs a trace call using the grenade mask, as a line. Doesn't use a custom ray.

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
from	Vector	The starting position
to	Vector	The ending position
thrower	C_BaseEntity	The entity throwing the grenade, gets skipped
ignore_breakable	boolean	Ignores any breakable objects if true

Returns

Type	Description
CGameTrace	The resulting trace object

---

TraceGrenadeHull

Function

Performs a trace call using the grenade mask, as a hull. Doesn't use a custom ray.

Arguments

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

Returns

Type	Description
CGameTrace	The resulting trace object
