Have you taken a look at this Throwing documentation to ensure you have the grabbable object properties configured properly? There is also an example code as well in that article.
I will continue to try and figure this out. I haven't encountered "enable throwing controls" when I attempt this, but have seen it before on shared assets. I have yet to use typescript.
If you hold the default drop button until the green ring completes you'll throw the object held. I'm working on this as well and will post when I get it figured.
Hi Ben, I've tried to follow the Throwing Documentation and have had the Desktop Editor crash multiple times. Typically after multiple grabs of the same object (DiceWhite_geom from public assets). It does manage to throw once. Throwing controls is enabled. I've filled a bug report and included the Windows Event application error. Here's the code I'm using stripped down after multiple attempts:
import { Component, CodeBlockEvents, PlayerDeviceType, Player, Handedness } from 'horizon/core'; class DiceThrow extends Component<typeof DiceThrow> { static propsDefinition = { }; start() { this.connectCodeBlockEvent(this.entity, CodeBlockEvents.OnIndexTriggerDown, (player: Player)=> { // Ignore on VR devices if (player.deviceType.get() == PlayerDeviceType.VR) { return; } // Setup the throw options let opt = { speed: 25, pitch: 30 } // Calling Throw Held Item player.throwHeldItem(opt); } )} } Component.register(DiceThrow);
