Go to movie from within 3D world

[John Craig Freeman]

Hello, I have been searching, without luck, to find some sort of documentation
on how to trigger a go to movie behavior from within a 3D world using either
collision detection or the location of a POV camera. For instance the user
arrives at the edge of the 3D world and is automatically advanced to the next
adjacent world. Can anyone help?

Hi,

use the collision modifier (easy) or ModelsUnderRay() (a bit more to learn,
but more control)

I assume you are new to 3D lingo so let's start with the collision modifier,
it is OK for simpler apps

Just add the modifier to the models you need to detect collision between

use the AddModifier(#collision) function (see Help or

Then setup a collision callback, a good example is found here
