<br />
- 2: Polygon
<br />
- 3: Box (EntityBox is used)
<br />
- <br />

- <h1>Description</h1>
- <table>
- <tr>
- <td>
- Sets the pick mode for an entity.
<br />
-
<br />
- The optional obscurer parameter is used with EntityVisible to determine just what can get in the way of the line-of-sight between 2 entities. This allows some entities to be pickable using the other pick commands, but to be ignored (i.e. 'transparent') when using EntityVisible. So, its very much EntityVisible specific.

- Please note that only Sphere and Box picking will work with Blitz3D sprites. For polygon picking, you will need a valid mesh.
