[SOLVED] [RVGL] Sliders collision not working

I have a strange issue with the Slider objects at my custom track. I'm using default Supermarket sliders at Spa-Volt 2.
I've only remapped the texture so far, the .ncp is still stock.

At Singleplayer races, the collision is not working properly, as you can see in this short video:

However, in other race modes - for example Time Trial - there are no issues at all:

I can reproduce this, and I also heard from other people, having similar issues at other tracks which are using slider objects.
I also tried, to do a fresh export from the sliders .ncp-file, but the problem stay.

Any idea, what can cause this?

Is the issue reproducible in the stock SM level?

That does indeed remind me of some of my old Lego tracks. (Burguers mentioned this on Discord)

Pretty much I have the similar issue on an old canceled track of mine. Possibly the collision is hard-coded, or the .ncp is just wank. A possible reason is that the collision & main model are off-sync to the animation, but that's just me.

there is no ncp for slider model : it's a hull file like with cars ...

@r6te: I tested it on Supermarket 2: I can't reproduce it there. Slider collisions working fine in all the game modes on this track.

@Mace: I'm not sure if this can be the case, because it's working perfectly on Market 2. My guess is that I hit (again) some kind of a limit at Spa-Volt 2?

@Sebr: Are you sure? Look here, this are the files from the RVGL download:

How many sliders do you have on this track? In my track with the sliders, there's 6 of them, and during races, the doors don't seem to respond with collision.

I have 2 doors = 4 sliders.

It‘s true that this are 2 more than on Supermarket 2, but if it would be hardcoded (or synced in some way), I would guess that it also wouldn‘t work in Time Trial mode. This is the thing which is confusing me. Why does it only not work in Singleplayer?

Today in the evening I will try to remove 2 of the sliders, and will have a look if it works this way.

To summarize from my discussions with Kiwi on Discord,
  • There is a collision issue affecting certain animated objects like the sliding door.
  • The issue exists in the original versions and the stock Market2 level (but here it's rare).
  • You can pass through the sliding door every time a car is repositioning anywhere on the level.
  • So, the bug is more frequent when AI cars are repositioning all the time.
This bug has also been fixed for good (and after nearly 20 years!).

That's a fun cause!

You can still drive through slider doors. :D But it does seem to be much less frequent than in older versions (I haven't tested against an older version, just against my memory).

Are you sure? It's highly unlikely that the bug still exists. Have you checked your version of RVGL, and can you provide more details? (the track, game mode, ...)

Aah, my memory was mistaken then, sorry. :grimacing: I have not yet updated my main installation, I see (only my I/O one). I was confused because of the different order in months and days from what I'm used to, maybe.
But I believe you that the bug was indeed fixed in the newest version, and that's quite interesting! Some of my old tracks will behave a bit differently, now. ;)
