Ray casting gadget, for measuring distances
complete
F
Faberim
A gadget that casts a ray and measures the distance between itself and its target. Outputs would be delivered as pulses, though however it is implemented would be up to developers of course.
Could have features like only detecting a specific tag or role.
Some example outputs from pins:
•Distance to target, 0 if no target found
•Object ID of target
•Player ID of target if set to detect players
Use cases:
•Allowing a gizmo-oriented object to be set to stop or move away when it bumps into a surface
•A raycasting-based weapon
•Measuring proximity of two objects or players

I'm going to merge this with the Raycast request to mark it as complete, since the Rangefinder satisfies this, I think.

This would be amazingly helpful for building as well. I'd like to know how tall my walls are to match real world structures. Eyeballing is fine but real measurements would be great.

Tyeron Hammontree: You can already make real life scale though, every 1 snap is 1 cm...

ThePigMasterVR: Meh it’s a work around. Snaps don’t quite get me the look I want. For some reason things don’t usually match up and I have to massage it into place. Ohh well, thank god for cloning.

For now, I tend to use a piston laser and guesstimate a little.
