I want to get the normal of the red face
#Getting the Normal of the next face in a part
blissful maple
abstract surge
Two solutions I can think of:
- Shoot some rays from behind the player at an angle to detect neighboring faces
- Define a spline of some kind along all the climbable edges in the game and use that to determine what's to either side of the character
polar lintel
how about this
similar to @abstract surge 's first idea, but instead of shooting a ray at an angle you just increment more to the right, then shoot a ray forward until you find a surface with a different normal vector
blue being the player, red dotted line to show distance behind player, green for rays
