Working with GameObjects

Working with GameObjects

• void ClearObjects()
  • erases all LUA generated objects
  • this gets called when switching modes or photospheres
• void AddEvent(string target, string eventType, string functionName)
  • attaches event script to target gameobject
  • note: You must add AddGazeTarget() first, otherwise event function does not get registered
• void AddEvent(string target, string eventType, string functionName, string parameter)
  • attaches event script to target gameobject with parameter to send for that function
• void RemoveEvent(string target, string eventType)
  • removes specific event from gameobject
• void SetLayer(string target, string layer)
  • sets object layer
  • for now, adding AddGazeTarget() automatically also sets correct layer "UI", so that gaze hits it
• void AddGazeTarget(string target)
  • makes object as a gaze target
  • Collider is required on the object
• void AddDragTarget(string target)
  • makes object draggable by adding GazeTargetEmpty script to it (same way like duck)
  • note: layer must be also set with: b:SetLayer(id,"Pickable")
• void AddDragTarget(string target, string onStartDragFunction, string onReleaseFunction)
  • makes object draggable by adding GazeTargetEmpty script to it (same way like duck)
  • also adds lua scripts to run when dragging starts and ends
• void RemoveDragTarget(string target)
  • removes GazeTargetEmpty from the object
• void RemoveGazeTarget(string target)
  • removes gazetarget script
• void SetColor(string target, int red, int green, int blue)
  • sets object material (note: for now only first object, not multimesh)
• void AddRigidbody(string target, float mass)
  • adds physics to object (so by default, the object would fall down with gravity)
• void SetVelocity(string target, float x, float y, float z)
  • sets physics object velocity
• void AddCollider(string target, string type)
  • adds collider to object
  • available collider types: "SPHERE", "BOX", "MESH"
  • NOTE: if there is not meshfilter in the root gameobject, box collider is added instead (and fit to child objects)
• void AddBoxCollider(string target, float cx, float cy, float cz, float width, float height, float depth)
  • Adds box collider with params
  • collider center: cx,cy,xz (in gameobject local space)
  • collider size: width, height, depth (in gameobject local space)
• void RemoveCollider(string target)
  • removes collider from target
  • note: only removes first one (not all, if there are multiple same colliders)
  • colliders checked: SphereCollider, MeshCollider, BoxCollider, CapsuleCollider
• void SetActive(string target, bool state)
  • activate/deactivate gameobject
  • when deactivated, it wont interact with anything and scripts attached to the gameobject wont run
• void Rename(string target, string newName)
  • renames gameobject
• void SetParent(string child, string parent)
  • set parent for this child gameobject (child becomes parented under parent)
