Distance(self.origin, location) not working? - xplosiff - 01-05-2012

I have this code inside a while(1) which is active all the time while the player is spawned, but it ALWAYS returns true, no matter where you are in the map.

Code:
		if(Distance(self.origin, level.intel[level.currentintel].coordinates) <= 70) self.nearintel = true;
		else self.nearintel = false;

have I done anything wrong? yes, level.currentintel and level.intel[ID].coordinates are defined, forced before anything else is. i have set self.nearintel = false; when the player connects.

thanks in advance

hmm, weird. Give us the rest of the function please.

Code:
if(Distance(self.origin, level.intel[level.currentintel].coordinates) <= 70)

to:

Code:
if(Distance(self.origin, level.intel[level.currentintel].coordinates.origin) <= 70)

It needs origin, no? Smile

thanks, but it works now. the coordinates weren't even initialized and thats why it was bugging up. I ended up fixing it myself, but thanks anyway Smile
