I apologize for the subject, its not very descriptive. I wasn't thinking at the time, so sorry.

hi guys, i know i said i'd do this without help, but i dont' get whats going on. The sphere rolls over the cone and is supposed to pick it up, but no dice. I don't know what to do, could somebody help me please?

Hello,

A couple of minor changes and you program should be fine.

The GLUE OBJECT TO LIMB command glues an object to a limb. You haven't set up any limbs and you are trying to tell the program to glue object 2 to limb 4 of object 1. If you haven't set up any limbs, there is a root limb that represents the object itself - limb 0.

Instead of
glue object to limb 2,1,4

it should read
glue object to limb 2,1,0

The main problem is where you have DO located. You are cycling the movement commands through the loop, but you only check for collision once before the loop begins. Move the DO before the If object collision(1,2)=1. Now it should check for collision on every iteration.

Also, if you change the scale of the cone so you can see more than a flat surface, you'll be able to witness the glue object to limb result better.

Enjoy your day.
