Re: Multiple Light Tracking with Distinct Light Boxes

Wow... Contrats! I was thinking that it would be possible to do something like this when I saw Kevin's new function.

Actually, I remember having a problem two years ago where it wasn't possible to talk to the camera while it was sending data in tracking mode (I was trying to command the servos attached to the camera, but it wouldn't listen to me)... how did you get around this limitation? Or was it not a problem?
EDIT: Ah, I saw your answer to this at http://chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?p=566552 ... I guess it was the Poll Mode that was causing this behavior.

As jpaupore said in his comment, it might be hard to get angles to each target... however there should still be a way of getting an angle from a pixel position.

Anyway, I'm thinking that the only reason to track two targets at once is to go for the center position, so it shouldn't matter as long as you are aiming in between the two. Otherwise, you would just choose one to begin with and point toward it.

Check out the space simulator called Vega Strike, modelled after the space simulator games Elite and Wing Commander. It's Open Source too!
If you have ever played Wing Commander, or especially Privateer, and had a feeling of nostalga derived from the you will enjoy these two Vega Strike mods: Privateer Gemini Gold and Privateer Remake!
I'm working on adding multiplayer support this year...
