Hi guys,

I am in need of a little help!

I have created a large 5-sided cube (with a 6th, front side to be added) out of 5 flattened cubes from jit.gl.gridshape objects, and have placed a sphere inside which bounces about, reporting collisions with each face of the cube as it hits them. I am attempting to make each face transparent so that the sphere inside can be seen, but when it hits a face, I wanted that face to flash a certain colour, then return to being transparent.

I have managed to work out the collision reporting, but I am stuck on this one transparency issue. I have searched about the forums and the only thing I’ve found is how to make a whole cube from one jit.gl.gridshape object transparent, which isn’t what I’m after as I would want to trigger each face separately. Basically just need some idea on how to make a flattened cube shape transparent so that the black areas are see-through, but colours become visible when collisions occur.

I have posted the patch, hope it’s okay to read. Thanks in advance for any assistance given!
