I am creating a space fighting game(in ships) and I need a tracking system. Unforturnatly, I don't know how to check to see whats under the camera (whether that would be the x,y, or z axis or two of them). Is this a possibility in DBC or not.

Thanks in advanc

If you're talking about positions, then you'd use the y axis for what's under the camera.

Something like...



Hope that's what you meant.

I already knew how to check for position, but in a space flight, you could be faceing many different directions. I want to know how to (if possible) check to see what is below the camera based on camera rotation.
