I threw together an interesting plugin idea last night: Ropeater. You specify an offset angle and alignment mode and can repeatedly duplicate a part or model in that way by dragging on one of the handles. I’ve found it quite fun to play around with so far.
Oh wow, this looks like something to when I’m bored and have nothing to do in studio, thanks for sharing!
THIS IS GENIUS just imagine the wierd things u can make with this ty man
This is crazy innovative! Looks like it would make organic curves a lot easier to build
Out of curiosity, how precise is your plugin? Would any rounding errors compound over time, for example?
It doesn’t do anything fancy internally to avoid building up floating point error. In my testing it wasn’t needed, I could make a 100 part ring with it and still have the ends visibly line up perfectly.
Let me know if it is a problem (with your use case) and I can try some improvements. There is some low hanging fruit I could implement to get a bit less floating point error.
I am having a struggle because when I use this plugin on grouped models while rotating, It glitches in a unnecessary direction. Is there any way to fix this?
