Hi, I’m working on this current project:

http://www.margaretscratcher.co.uk/projects/CustomBike/index.html

And as you can see, if you click and drag, the framerate drops noticeably as the cursor crosses over the components of the bike.

I’m using David Lenaerts’ HoverDragController, ideally what I need to do is for that to trigger a function in my main class to kill the event listeners when drag starts, and then re-add them when it finishes.

I already have those functions in my main class, I just can’t figure out how to modify the hoverDragController class to do that..

Or is there something else maybe I’m missing that is causing the slowdown?

I’ve tried different hitMethods…

Mouse picking is currently being refactored to allow the user (you) to specify more granularly the options for picking, hence hopefully optimizing the performance in cases where full details are not needed.

You can follow this work in the picking_refactor branch of the away3d-core-fp11 repository on GitHub.

Thanks, I’ll keep an eye on it!
