can i get a entity velocities value on visual feedback?

[chlrh1226]

hello,

i wondering can i get a entity velocities value on visual feedback?

i use this value like trigger to change motion behavior.
i plan to use that value on express trigger or, chop behavior etc.

can i get this value? or other velocity value. not vector value. 
if you guys any idea., please let me know. Thanks.

Hey there,

Can you please specify Golaem and Maya version ?

Depending on the answer, you can probably use the Channel entityVelocity

Vector will be cast as float in the Expression Trigger

Hope that helps

hello, Thank you for your replying.

i use golaem version 9.0.2 and maya version 2024.

i make a entity attribute for take a entity velocity

and get a entity velocity value on chop behavior.

but they get only vector value for entity velocity.
i want to get a entity velocity value on visual feedback.

how can i translate entity velocity vector value to float value?
or is there other want to get a entity velocity value on visual feedback?

my goal is use like this

depending on entity velocity, entity will change they motion behavior

Thank you for your help.

If you make the attribute a float, the norm of the vector will be written in the attribute

Else you can use the norm operator in the ChOp Operation node

awesome!!!

good advice for me!

thanks!
