Coding problem with co-ord's along the radius of a circle

Troubleshooting graphics
#1

Hey guys tried implementing putting box’s along the radius of a circular orbit but having some difficulties, sorry am a newb :slight_smile:



am i doing anything obviously wrong ?



oh and the start angle would be 180 and the end angle would be 45 and tried it on different distances but nothing.



[java]

private void buildAsteroids(int d, int startAngle, int endAngle)

{

Node roidsNode = new Node(“roidsNode”);

Float x,z;



for(int i = startAngle ; i <= endAngle; i-=10)

{

x = FastMath.cos(i) * d; //see polar co ordinates converting them to cartesian ones

z = FastMath.sin(i) * d;



Box roid = new Box("mockRoid " + i,new Vector3f(x,0,z),

new Vector3f(x+1,0+1,z+1));



roidsNode.attachChild(roid);

}





Box helloBox = new Box(“hello”,new Vector3f(0,0,10),

new Vector3f(1,1,11));



roidsNode.attachChild(helloBox);



TextureState roidTS = display.getRenderer().createTextureState();

// Use the TextureManager to load a texture

Texture t = TextureManager.loadTexture(Game.class.getClassLoader().getResource(“GamePics/1.jpg”),

Texture.MinificationFilter.BilinearNearestMipMap,

Texture.MagnificationFilter.Bilinear);

// Assign the texture to the TextureState

roidTS.setTexture(t);

roidsNode.setRenderState(roidTS);



root.attachChild(roidsNode);

}

[/java]



bit embarassing putting my code up but ah well lol,



one thing i noticed is that the many asteroids bar the “Hello” one is not being attached to the roidsNode in program output…



anyone got an idea as to the problem ?

oops i found the prob it was v minor , soz thought was much more complicated error after couldnt see it.



i put <= instead of >= lol



oops :S
