Hi, i´ve been searching forums/googles/various tubes but i cant find a solution for my problem, hopefully someone here could help me or atleast point me at the right direction.

I want to be able to use the E key as a way to interact with levers,doors and such with the 3rd person control but for some reason it wont work.
any ideas why?

Best regards

Its an issue with player visibility and camera distance. I made a thread about this and posted a third person door script a couple of months ago here:

https://forum.game-guru.com/thread/220638

Basicslky i just stripped out the player visibility checks and let it just check distance instead.

Makes me wonder, wouldnt it be possible to make a global script to render the visibility check void?

The 'proper' fix would be to make the player visibility checks work in 3rd person, I would have a go at fixing it myself except that I can't seem to get GG to build on my new machine, probably due to the fact that VS2019 is the one it installed. I've got all the right SDKs (I think) but it doesn't seem to be able to find them when I build.
