    Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Tore Eriksson
   In 973p11.dat the first line reads: 0 ~Moved to 973p1a, 973p1b, 973p1c L3P can obviously handle this correctly, but my utility movedto.exe for one, treats the input like this: 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 973p11.dat is altered to: 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 (...)

     (...) You are not supposed to actually use the information in the comment, it's only informational. The ~ tells mklist to ignore this part. Just ignore the line, the following line type 1 will automatically redirect you to the new part. /Lars (20 years ago, 5-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Tore Eriksson
     (...) When rendering Datsville, you'll recieve several hundreds of "Part n Moved moved to nn" messages. It is totally necessary to find a way to eliminate them, so I invented the movedto utility. (...) Yes, that's one of the uses for the "~Moved (...)

     (...) There is: use the file referenced by the type 1 line in the MovedTo file. (...) Yes, MLCad messes this up as well. The problem is that you're using the 0 ~MovedTo comment as a reference instead of the type 1 line in the file. 0 ~MovedTo is a (...) (20 years ago, 5-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
    
         Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Tore Eriksson
     (...) Sorry, I'm a little bit slow. Exactly how am I supposed to do that with 973p11.dat? And then make this a generic routine for a utility to handle automatically? (...) My opinion is that neither MLCad nor MovedTo.exe messes anything up. I think (...) (20 years ago, 5-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
    
         Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Orion Pobursky
      (...) I had a look at 973p11.dat and I see what you mean. I'm not sure. (...) The rendering code is very neccessary. Not all LDraw programs automatically detect the fact the a file ahas been moved. If there were no rending code the the model could (...) (20 years ago, 5-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)

     (...) It did for me. When MLCad found the refernce to 973p11.dat and asked if I wanted to upgrade, it changed all the "973p11.dat" references to "973p1a,.dat" references. Note the ",". -Orion (20 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)

        Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Steve Bliss
   (...) Sorry, Tore, but this usage was unavoidable. This isn't a normal part-move, the migration from 973p11 to 973p1a, 973p1b, and 973p1c is fixing an anomoly in the parts library. 973p11 is coded so that the undecorated surfaces of the part are a (...)

        Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Tore Eriksson
   (...) Sorry, skip the rest of the statement. No need to touch the parts with hard-coded pattern (p1a, p1b, p1c, and p1j). The un-orthodox moved to - remark can be altered to a genuine remark statement, like this: 0 ~Minifig Torso with Dungarees (...) (20 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Chris Dee
   (...) Yes, I guess this would work. although I'd prefer to add "(Deprecated)" or something similar to the title. I'm just dismayed that it has taken 7 months for anyone to realise that this causes problems with the toolset. The full list is : 973p11 (...) (20 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)
   
        Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Tore Eriksson
     (...) Never heard the word "deprecated" before, but I can guess its meaning from the context. It's fine, "(Obsolete)" could maybe work too, but I don't care that much about the words chosen, long as it doesn't interfer with any tools. (...) Once I (...)

         Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Steve Bliss
     (...) "~Replaced by" is a good option. "Depecrated" is more meaningful to computer-language geeks, but I think "~Replaced by" would do the job. Steve (20 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal? —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) I'd like to see us stick with "deprecated" if we possibly can. Even if we have to explain it to E2L speakers, because it has a very precise meaning which is just the meaning we want, I think. (20 years ago, 7-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)
