Reference: Global Preferences
Contents |
This section describes global preferences defined by Arcane-FX.
Some of these settings were added so that features required by AFX could be shut off to maintain compatibility with other Torque applications. In these cases, the default settings represent standard engine behavior, while the AFXDemo may set them differently according to its requirements.
$pref::AFX::clickToTargetSelf
If true, the primary player's character can be selected directly to target it, otherwise an alternative interface mechanism must be used to make self-selections. One common technique is to select the primary player when its corresponding status-bar is clicked.
Type: Bool
Default: false
$pref::AFX::missileCollisionMask
A bit-mask of object type constants which afxMagicMissile objects will collide with.
