(...) That is great news. It means it should be relatively easy to add any new parts LEGO introduces (like the treads, or the NXT cables) without having to change the actual program. I'm looking forward to the release. Jetro (16 years ago, 27-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

As long as adding the next segment does not push the overall angle beyond a an angle threshold, the next segment is merged with the current segment. (...)
