clapboard section

Anonymous — Fri, 24 Aug 2007 18:43:54 GMT

i am making an object that is the section of clapboard. i've made the hotspots stretchable but i want the shape that i have put in the 2d script to repeat as far as i want it to along the y axis. what would be the correct funtion to use?

Just use a for ... next loop.

for k = 1 to yItems
blablabla ! your script
add2 0, y ! y displacement
next k

del yItems

Same thing for 3D script.

Cheers.

In place of blablabla, type your current script. That's all.
Or if you prefer, at the top of your 2D script type:

for k = 1 to 10 (define your number)

your current script

at the end of your script, type
add2 0, 10
next k
del 10

If you are in AC 10, look at the code for DET_Brick Coursing 10.gsm.
You will see what Olivier is talking about.

Hi Peter,

@ keenen, i did a mistake.
add2 0, y ! y is the value of displacement on y axis
next k
del 10
