avoidance behaviour
I'm guessing I would have to collect the worldspace of the object its coming close to or something like that?
Any ideas on this one would be very useful.
Cheers,
Chris

Below is an expression that makes there colour change when getting with in a certain proximity of each other...
//get objects translates
vector $obj1=`getAttr obj1.translate`;
vector $obj2=`getAttr obj2.translate`;
//subtract one from other
float $mag = mag($obj2-$obj1);
//change colour when within certain proximity
if ($mag <= 10)
setAttr lambert1.color 1 .5 .5;
else
setAttr lambert1.color .5 .5 1;
This is showing it recognises the proximity, now how would I go about making the active RB go round the passive RB?
Thanks
Chris
