I've got a baseball bat that isn't working. You fix it, you get a free copy and five for your friends.(Seeing as I'm broke as Hell.) And. . .I guess anyone else who reads this now would have working code for one, too. But I digress.
Thanks in advance for anything you might do. And set, the "Physical" checkbox is checked.

AFAIK, all attachments act phantom when they are attached to you. Having physics turned on won't do a thing.

I'm not sure how/if collision events are passed to attachments, as it's not something I've ever played with.

Well, a friend of a friend suggested projectiles -- invisible, small ones that can be collided with. It works, but if there's a better way, I'd love to hear it.

Teehee. Yeah, that works... Or, you could have a single sensor event fire, that searches for your baseball object and then apply impulse to it based on the avatar's rotation. Use a small arc, like maybe PI/4. (Not sure where the arc will orginate from however -- avatar's rotation, or attachments.)
