MAV on ODE_dBodyAddForce()

hi!

i am developing a physic engine at the moment!
and on this function:

Function CreatePhysicExplosion(x#, y#, z#, range# = 5, intensity# = 10)
For pm.PhysicMesh = Each PhysicMesh
	ox# = x# - EntityX(pm\ent)
	oy# = y# - EntityY(pm\ent)
	oz# = z# - EntityZ(pm\ent)
	dis# = Sqr(ox# ^ 2 + oy# ^ 2 + oz# ^ 2)
	If dis# < range# Then ODE_dBodyAddForce pm\body, ox# * intensity#, oy# * intensity#, oz# * intensity#
Next
End Function

i allways get a MAV on ode_dbodyaddforce! do you know why?

thx :)

Never used ODE but it may a division by 0 issue. Adding an offset of 1 or less to dis# should prevent this. For explosions you should be using the inverse distance to calculate the effective intensity.

Function CreatePhysicExplosion(x#, y#, z#, range# = 5, intensity# = 10)

	For pm.PhysicMesh = Each PhysicMesh
		ox# = x# - EntityX(pm\ent)
		oy# = y# - EntityY(pm\ent)
		oz# = z# - EntityZ(pm\ent)
		dis# = Sqr(ox# * ox# + oy# * oy# + oz# * oz# ) + 1 
		Effect# = intensity / ( dis * dis )
		If dis# < range# Then ODE_dBodyAddForce pm\body, ox# * effect#, oy# * effect#, oz# * effect#
	Next
End Function

Not sure if this helps.

still mav

either pm/body is 0 or an invalid handle, or you´re passing it illegal values. Check (print to debuglog) the results of the forces you try to add to the body. It could be possible you´re passing a NaN (not a number ie. a float out of range)

Hope that helps..

Sorry to be repetitive, but be shure that pm/body is a valid ODE body.
