Mesh Proxy: getVertexArrayLength

getVertexArrayLength(matID)
  • Returns the number of vertexes in a material.

Return Type:

  • integer

matID:
  • Type = integer
  • 0 = first material on mesh
  • 1 = second material on mesh
  • 2 = third material on mesh
  • etc.
    Note:
    • Materials on the mesh have to be assigned to different faces on the mesh.
        
    • If a material is assigned to same faces as another material, only the first material name will be returned.
    Sample Code

    ############################# get the vertex array length

    # import bge
    import bge

    # get the current controller
    controller = bge.logic.getCurrentController()

    # get object that owns this controller
    obj = controller.owner
     
    # Get a list of the mesh
    meshList = obj.meshes

    # Get the first mesh on the object
    mesh = meshList[0]
     
    # get first material
    matID = 0

    # get vertex array length of the material
    length = mesh.getVertexArrayLength(matID)
