What are you working on currently? (2017)

Making a plugin for my project that lets me draw shapes over existing geometry by manipulating vertices. (useful for things like paths/trails).

It can extrude faces, move vertices or edges, scale edges, sub divide faces, and connect to other edges with a curve(to connect shapes/paths laying on different normals)

this would be extremely useful for making roads over terrain :open_mouth:

That’s precisely what I made it for :smile:

Any chance we could expect an open-sourced version at some point?

Probably once I’m finished with it if anyone else would find it useful

Awesome :o

Made my visualizer work with any polygon instead of just a circle, although it gets a lil weird with concave shapes:

Red lines are just a debug view so I can see where the vectors are pointing. I left them on so it’s easier to see the underlying polygons.

Did you attend the makerfaire last year?

Nah I haven’t been able to attend any events so far. While I’d love to, I find myself too busy doing other things.
