Hi all,
I would like to know if this usefull library have some imprecision problems because when the ray collide with a point.. return a null Rc.
thanks in advance

are you sure you are using it correctly? Works perfectly here. Some code would be useful.

Hi Katachi,
the prob is that is working at perfect here too except when the ray intersect a point

So is this in the case of a standalone point in space, or in the case where a ray hits exactly on a point between polygons? The former might be problematic, but I would have expected the latter to work. If you give me a testcase that sets up an object and shows how the ray collider misses a point, I could send it along to the programmers.

Hi Mikael,
The problem occour when you hit a point of a poligon.
just pass to GeRayCollider a single square polygon with a left low corner to 0,0,0 and upper right corner to 1,1,0 and try to shot a ray from 0,0,-1 and you'll get a null from Intersection function.
Cheers

I'm afraid such precision is outside the scope of the ray collider class. Generally I wouldn't trust it to detect collisions with border cases, even if they look numerically simple. On the other hand, if you find a case where the ray can leak through an edge between two polygons that could be a bug.
If you need numerical stability on borders you will probably need to use some kind of arbitrary precision CAD library.
