Don't know if it is related but the AddObjectCollisionCheck doesn't work for the new trees either.
The cause in this case is probably due to object Id ranges having been added/changed as the physics object collision checking uses object Ids to correlate Bullet collision events with specific types of object, when I added it it only knew about terrain and ordinary physics objects. I suspect some other kinds of physics objects have been added (like procedural trees) which report as different object Id ranges and that is confusing the system.
@TenebreGaming In the new procedural terrain system this command only works now when the ray points straight down as that is how the new engine uses it. I have updated the global.lua notes to this effect, and retagged this as a feature request to expand the LUA command to allow a raycast in any direction. For now, use the IntersectAll command instead.
RayTerrain: r=RayTerrain(x,y,z,x2,y2,z2) -- returns 1 if the ray cast hits the terrain geometry (only reliable when ray faces directly down)
The position of normal terrain is correct, but the position is not correct when a tree is detected.
Edit: I have also found that the trees are causing false collisions with the IntersectAll() function when the trees are nearby (and not even near the path of the ray). I was encountering some weird errors in some areas and found that these areas all had trees near them. Removing the trees removed the errors.
