Q. Is there any way to have an object that the player is carrying have its collision On so it will be obstructed by other entity's, while the player is carrying it?

I have tried every way I can think of, but I still cannot find a solution.

In the attached screen shot I want the desk to collide with the building so the player cannot enter the room.

Cheers

I would say use an invisible block that is dynamic and set a script up to keep the collision on till you need it off, Maybe by distance or some collection of a variable.

Thanks Myke,

I think you are talking about a barrier between the desk and the building ?
if so it the same problem, as the desk has it's collision off so you can carry it, so it still goes through a barrier.
If I turn the desk's collision On while carrying the desk, it still acts as collision is off.

Yes, but you (he player) would not, and if you move the blocker away from the door to compensate for the desk depths, then I think you could create the illusion until this gets worked on more.

this 1 does as it uses the MoveForward()
it's not as smooth as using setposition though.

Yes, That should work, Thanks Mkye, Nice workaround.

I been wondering if there is an fpe command that could help here, I have tried all the different collisionmodes that I know of, besides the ones for trees, as I don't understand them yet.

I need physics on so items will drop when I let go of them and collision on for other objects.

But ill use your workaround for now.

Cheers

Thanks smallg
Ill try this out and see how it goes.
I have been using setposition to maintain the desired height and rotation for other objects.
