Examples
| Description | Use the z component of OBBMins to place the bottom of the entity exactly against the surface, by multiplying it by the normal vector. |

| Used on |  |
| Code | function TOOL:UpdateGhostWireKeyboard( ent, player ) if ( !ent || !ent:IsValid() ) then return end local tr = utilx.GetPlayerTrace( player, player:GetCursorAimVector() ) local trace = util.TraceLine( tr ) if (!trace.Hit || trace.Entity:IsPlayer() || trace.Entity:GetClass() == "gmod_wire_keyboard" ) then ent:SetNoDraw( true ) return end local Ang = trace.HitNormal:Angle() Ang.pitch = Ang.pitch + 90 local min = ent:OBBMins() ent:SetPos( trace.HitPos - trace.HitNormal * min.z ) ent:SetAngles( Ang ) ent:SetNoDraw( false ) end |
| Output | N/A |
Additional Notes
- See the picture to the right for more help understanding the OBB. Keep in mind the coordinates are local - which means the OBB can be rotated or moved around in the world, but the local coordinates will not change.
