  Bug: 3D models do not load properly after first start of layout. I.E. If layout is restarted, and if game is saved then loaded later.

  Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Import 3d model(.glb) into 3d Models folder

  2. Create 3d model plugin and make sure model is selected properly for it to display it in viewport/layout when placed.

  3. Place 3D model in viewport/layout and see it displaying properly in viewport/layout.

  4. Start game from editor

  5. Notice that 3d Model loads properly

  6. restart layout(by death, or by saving then loading, or any other method while in-game to restart layout).

  7. Notice that 3d Models did not load.

  Note: Attempted Persist behavior on 3d model plugins/objects and anything associated with them with no luck getting them to load after layout restart. Also exported to Windows(webview2) and launched EXE for it. 3d models did not load for that either on initial launch.

  Hey Planetheads,

  I'm currently working on a game w/ similar idea (top-down game where player moves any direction, then the upper part of the torso follows the mouse.

  Easiest way I found how to do it was:

  Layout

  1. Create a sprite (can be a simple square/block on the screen)

  -give it 8 direction movement behavior

  -name it 'Player'

  This will be the base for your character, and control the direction of the legs

  2. Create another sprite that contains graphics for the legs (animations) and put this off the screen,

  -set it's visibility to invisible in the properties.

  -Add 'Pin' to the behaviors.

  -name it 'Legs'

  This is a dummy object that should be off the layout as mentioned above.

  3. Create upper torso/head of character by making a sprite and adding graphics for the upper torso of the character (that looks at the mouse cursor)

  -make it offscreen, its again a dummy

  -Add 'pin' to behaviors

  -name it 'Torso'

  -Add

  -lastly make it invisible (should say initial visibility or what not in properties)

  Now we are going to add some code to event sheet to make it all work..

  1. On start of layout, create 'Legs' object and set x,y position to 'Player.X, Player.Y'

  2. Pin 'Legs' object to 'Player' (position & angle)

  3. Set visibility of 'Legs' to 'visible'

  There are the legs

  4. Still on 'On start of layout', add these actions

  5. Create 'Torso' object and set x,y position to 'Player.X, Player.Y'

  6. Pin 'Torso' to 'Player' (position only)

  7. Set 'Torso' visibility to 'visible'

  There is the torso on top of the legs

  -If you have z sorting issues, i always set player to top of layer, then the legs to the top, then the torso to the top, that way each layer will get bumped down as you add an object to the top of the layer

  Next we have to make the 'Torso' look at the mouse cursor

  In event sheet

  add 'System - every tick' then action:

  'Torso' Set Angle Toward 'Mouse.X, MouseY'

  If you are still struggling, msg me and i can send you a capx
