Material point scanner (Assembly)
The material point scanner provides information about the materials an object contains.
Basic information
The material scanner casts a ray 100 meters long. If an object is detected within this range, it will update the 'ScanResults', 'Material', and 'Volume' devicefields If an object contains more than one material, the user can change the 'Index' device field to page through the returned results. These fields will not update until a new object is scanned.
The fields can only be read from a Text Panel if it is written manually by Yolol. Example code execution to manually read and write the results would be:
- Results = :ScanResults goto1
where :Results is the name of a text panel, and where :ScanResults is the ScanResults device field on the Material Scanner.
