set parent...

[digimikeh]

Hi
Im wondering if there is a built in set parent function ...
If not, then i have a raw solution but i don't know how elegant is it, is setting the position and rotation of the child object using the current rotation and position of the parent in the game loop....

Is that the only way to do it?

Thanks

Hi!
"Linking" child object co-ordinate systems to parent objects would need to be done manually, yes.

When building hierarchies it can be useful to pass around sf::Transform instances, e.g. to the draw function. That way relative movements can be done without much effort.
