Enabling and disabling an object

What does disabling an object do? Does that stop it from being rendered, or from being updated? (or both?)

    I just tried it.

    orxObject_Enable(myObject, orxFALSE);

    This seems to stops the rendering (becomes invisible), and you can't affect it with orxObject commands anymore.

    orxObject_Enable(myObject, orxTRUE);

    Brings it back and it becomes responsive to orxObject commands again.

    An interesting note... the physics body remains behind and physics are still triggered with it. So I guess attached bodies would still need to be manually disabled as well.

    Ah yep, sausage's right, the physics body should probably be deactivated/activated. Would you mind opening an issue about it on http://code.orx-project.org/orx ? :D

    Thanks and no worries for the delay.

    Also, if you create an issue while logged in, you'll get notified of any updates (like when it gets resolved).

    Should be fixed. :)
