The StartedSolid field of the PhysicsTraceResult struct indicates whether the trace operation began within a solid object. This boolean field is useful for determining if the initial position of the trace was already inside a collision volume, which can affect the results of the trace.
Use the StartedSolid field to check if a trace started inside a solid object. This can be particularly useful in scenarios where you need to handle cases differently if the trace begins within a solid, such as when performing collision detection or physics simulations.
// Example usage of PhysicsTraceResult.StartedSolid
PhysicsTraceResult traceResult = PerformTrace();
if (traceResult.StartedSolid)
{
// Handle the case where the trace started inside a solid object
// This might involve adjusting the trace start position or logging a warning
HandleStartedInSolid(traceResult);
}
else
{
// Proceed with normal trace handling
ProcessTraceResult(traceResult);
}
