Convert 3d coordinates to screen
« on: August 11, 2007, 03:32:41 AM »
I want my actor to "go back" and no "screen upwards", so i want to get the screen coordinated from a 3D coordinate where Z is reduced by a constant.
I need a funcition to convert from 3D coordinates to screen coordinates. looked around a bit in the help - didn't find anything, and it was too late for an answer in the IRC.

There's currently no built-in script function for converting between 2D and 3D coordinates.
