Hi

Happy new year to everyone on the list(s).

I have been sitting here thinking about implementing a geometry to
geometry collision detection capability for our Vega applications and
have managed to get myself all confused - nothing new there :)

I want the tests to run in the intersection process. I got myself
confused over the intersection function specified with pfIsectFunc. I
had thought that you can only specify one intersection function, but
what would happen if you were to call pfIsectFunc twice with different
functions?

The reason I ask is that I already have an intersection function for
our own motion models which is set up with pfIsectFunc, and uses
pfNodeIsectSegs. However we also make use of Vega Isector functions
elsewhere. Everything is Ok which makes me think I am wrong about
pfIsectFunc.

Can anybody confirm whether I can set up a number of intersection
functions using pfIsectFunc (I know I should go and test it, but it's
almost time to leave!!)

Thanks in advance (& forgive my ramblings - I've not got used to being
back at work yet).

Regards.

Mark.
