Detailed Description

This class stores a 3D kart model.

It takes especially care of attaching the wheels, which are loaded as separate objects. The wheels can turn and (for the front wheels) rotate. The implementation is dependent on the OpenGL library used. Note that this object is copied using the default copy function. See kart.cpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ KartModel()

KartModel::KartModel ( bool is_master )

Default constructor which initialises all variables with defaults.

Note that the KartModel is copied, so make sure to update makeCopy if any more variables are added to this object. ATM there are two pointers:

to the scene node (which is otherwise handled by kart/movable and set later anyway)
to the mesh. Sharing mesh is supported in irrlicht, so that's no problem. There are two different type of instances of this class: One is the 'master instances' which is part of the kart_properties. These instances have m_is_master = true, will cause an assertion crash if attachModel is called or the destructor notices any wheels being defined. The other types are copies of one of the master objects: these are used when actually displaying the karts (e.g. in race). They must be copied since otherwise (if the same kart is used more than once) shared variables in KartModel (esp. animation status) will cause incorrect animations. The mesh is shared (between the master instance and all of its copies). Technically the scene node and mesh should be grab'ed on copy, and dropped when the copy is deleted. But since the master copy in the kart_properties_manager is always kept, there is no risk of a mesh being deleted to early.

Member Function Documentation

◆ attachModel()

scene::ISceneNode * KartModel::attachModel	(	bool	animated_models,
		bool	human_player
	)

Attach the kart model and wheels to the scene node.

Returns: the node with the model attached

◆ finishedRace()

void KartModel::finishedRace ( )

Called when the kart finished the race.

It will force the highest LOD for the kart, since otherwise the end camera can be far away (due to zooming) and show non-animated karts.

◆ getBaseFrame()

int KartModel::getBaseFrame ( ) const

inline

Since karts might be animated, we might need to know which base frame to use.

◆ getHeight()

float KartModel::getHeight ( ) const

inline

Returns the height of the kart.

◆ getLength()

float KartModel::getLength ( ) const

inline

Returns the length of the kart model.

◆ getModel()

scene::IAnimatedMesh* KartModel::getModel ( ) const

inline

Returns the animated mesh of this kart model.

◆ getNitroEmittersPositon()

const Vec3& KartModel::getNitroEmittersPositon ( unsigned int i ) const

inline

Returns the position of nitro emitter relative to the kart.

Parameters

i	Index of the emitter: 0 = right, 1 = left

◆ getSpeedWeightedObject()

const SpeedWeightedObject& KartModel::getSpeedWeightedObject ( int i ) const

inline

Returns the position of a speed weighted object relative to the kart.

Parameters

i	Index of the object

◆ getWheelGraphicsPosition()

const Vec3& KartModel::getWheelGraphicsPosition ( unsigned int i ) const

inline

Returns the position of a wheel relative to the kart.

Parameters

i	Index of the wheel: 0=front right, 1 = front left, 2 = rear right, 3 = rear left.

◆ getWheelGraphicsRadius()

float KartModel::getWheelGraphicsRadius ( unsigned int i ) const

inline

Returns the radius of the graphical wheels.

Parameters

i	Index of the wheel: 0=front right, 1 = front left, 2 = rear right, 3 = rear left.

◆ getWheelModel()

scene::IMesh* KartModel::getWheelModel ( const int i ) const

inline

Returns the mesh of the wheel for this kart.

◆ getWheelNodes()

scene::ISceneNode** KartModel::getWheelNodes ( )

inline

Returns the array of wheel nodes.

◆ getWidth()

float KartModel::getWidth ( ) const

inline

Returns the width of the kart model.

◆ initInverseBoneMatrices()

void KartModel::initInverseBoneMatrices ( )

private

Called when a kart is load.

this will load all the inverse bone matrices for each bone in straight frame. The location, rotation and scale in kart.xml for attachments (speedweighted objects, headlight, hat...) are in object space, so if you use a inverse bone matrix * that matrix, it will be relative to the bone, and you can use the result to set parent.

◆ loadInfo()

void KartModel::loadInfo ( const XMLNode & node )

This function loads the information about the kart from a xml file.

It does not actually load the models (see load()).

Parameters

node	XML object of configuration file.

◆ loadNitroEmitterInfo()

void KartModel::loadNitroEmitterInfo	(	const XMLNode &	node,
		const std::string &	emitter_name,
		int	index
	)

private

Loads a single nitro emitter node.

Currently this the position of the nitro emitter relative to the kart.

Parameters

emitter_name	Name of the nitro emitter, e.g. emitter-a.
index	Index of this emitter in the global m_emitter* fields.

◆ loadSpeedWeightedInfo()

void KartModel::loadSpeedWeightedInfo ( const XMLNode * speed_weighted_node )

private

Loads a single speed weighted node.

◆ loadWheelInfo()

void KartModel::loadWheelInfo	(	const XMLNode &	node,
		const std::string &	wheel_name,
		int	index
	)

private

Loads a single wheel node.

Currently this is the name of the wheel model and the position of the wheel relative to the kart.

Parameters

wheel_name	Name of the wheel, e.g. wheel-rear-left.
index	Index of this wheel in the global m_wheel* fields.

◆ makeCopy()

KartModel * KartModel::makeCopy ( std::shared_ptr< RenderInfo > ri )

This function returns a copy of this object.

The memory is allocated here, but needs to be managed (esp. freed) by the calling function. It is also marked not to be a master copy, so attachModel can be called for this instance.

◆ OnAnimationEnd()

void KartModel::OnAnimationEnd ( scene::IAnimatedMeshSceneNode * node )

private

Called from irrlicht when a non-looped animation ends.

This is used to implement an introductory frame sequence before the actual loop can start: first a non-looped version from the first frame to the last frame is being played. When this is finished, this function is called, which then enables the actual loop.

Parameters

node	The node for which the animation ended. Should always be m_animated_node

◆ reset()

void KartModel::reset ( )

Resets the kart model.

It stops animation from being played and resets the wheels to the correct position (i.e. no suspension).

◆ setAnimation()

void KartModel::setAnimation	(	AnimationFrameType	type,
		bool	play_non_loop = `false`
	)

Enables- or disables the end animation.

Parameters

type	The type of animation to play.

◆ setHatMeshName()

void KartModel::setHatMeshName ( const std::string & name )

inline

Name of the hat mesh to use.

◆ update()

void KartModel::update	(	float	dt,
		float	distance,
		float	steer,
		float	speed,
		float	current_lean_angle,
		int	gt_replay_index = `-1`
	)

Rotates and turns the wheels appropriately, and adjust for suspension updates the speed-weighted objects' animations.

Parameters

dt	time since last frame
distance	How far the wheels have rotated since last time.
steer	The actual steer settings.
suspension	Suspension height for all four wheels.
speed	The speed of the kart in meters/sec, used for the speed-weighted objects' animations
current_lean_angle	How much the kart is leaning (positive meaning left side down)
gt_replay_index	The index to get replay data, used by ghost kart
