-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] that m_iParentAttachment, is that only for a player? Or for every physics objects, because in my Stickylauncher, it works and everything, though in multiplayer when you shoot someone else, it sticks to them, and they are no longer able to move. Do you think that m_iParentAttachment being set with SetParent(); would work?
