How to find a point a distance ahead on the spline?

[Jake]

Hi,

maybe you didn't post the whole code involved, but what I see makes no sense. tfAtlastPoint seems to be unused and distBetweenPoints doesn't do what you expect because you're calculating the distance between a world position and a relative value (0..1).

The question is how do you want your collectibles to be placed? Equal F distance? Equal world unit distance?

Here's a pseudocode:

Code:

for (int i=0;i<31;i++)
{
    var myNewGameObject=new GameObject(...);
    myNewGameObject.position=SplineGroup.Interpolate(i/30); // <= this will be equal F
    myNewgameObject.position=SplineGroup.Interpolate(SplineGroup.DistanceToTF((SplineGroup.Length/30)*i)); <= this will be equal distance
}
