selecting item from a for loop

quick question that is driving me insane..

I have a for loop that loops from 9 to 12 to check if the mouse cursor is above any of the items with index between 9 and 12..

Code:

---


for (int i = 9; i <= 12; i++)
        {
if (IntersectsModel(Crusor, Item[i]){
  ItemIndex = i;
}


}

---

However this method always returns ItemIndex as being 12 no matter which object the cursor is actually over. How can I make it return the proper item index? I know the problem is with the for loop logic and not the actual IntersectModel function.

Thanks.

I may get flamed for saying this, but you could put a break statement right after you assign the value to your ItemIndex variable. it would break out of the loop and continue with your program.

This way it stops at the first index and always returns a 9 :(

That would be because you put the break in the main body of the for-loop, instead of inside the if-statement.

Is it possible that IntersectsModel is faulty and always returns true?

Please pick an indentation style and stick to it. e.g.:

Code:

---

for (int i = 9; i <= 12; i++) {
    if (IntersectsModel(Crusor, Item[i]) {
        ItemIndex = i;
    }
}

---

Code:

---

for (int i = 9; i <= 12; i++)
{
    if (IntersectsModel(Crusor, Item[i])
    {
        ItemIndex = i;
    }
}

Then what you know is wrong, because the only way this for loop could do that is if IntersectModel were faulty.
Also, you spelt Cursor wrong.
