  Datsville: crane  [DAT]
 
I'm posting this as a mpd this time. Sooner or later Datsville is going to need an office building for it's residents to work in. This is a modular crane that can be adjusted in height for any project, and the arm can be rotated about the crane top. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Datsville: crane2 (exponents?)  [DAT]
 
For some reason, the lines with exponents don't render in ldlite when I use the dat hyperlink in web mode. ldlite,ldraw and l3p/povray render them fine locally. I made it in MLcad. Is this a bug? There is no need for e-15 exponents anyway so I (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

(...) If not a bug, at least a nit. I think if you open the file in LDAO's editor, select the whole text and MoveExact by 1, then move it all back, LDAO will get rid of the exponents. -John Van (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Datsville: crane
 
----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin Loch <kloch@opnsys.com> (...) .mpd is the way to go for this type of thing. I want to seriously plug M-Peedy for anyone using LDAO. If you set it up as a tool (took me 5-10 minutes) it works with even less (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Datsville: crane
 
That's why the top and the arm are seperate units. The top and arm have the bottom and top of a 4x4 turnstyle. KL (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Datsville: crane
 
The idea is that you start with the crane and a 32x32 area (or larger if you wish) and then gradually build a building underneath it. I'd be willing to give you a building in pieces as I cad it so we get the right effect. I have a cool design that (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  DAT line parsing (was: Re: Datsville: crane2 (exponents?))
 
(...) My bad. 'Twas a bug in the code in the ldraw.cgi script on the server which recognized DAT content. It wasn't expecting 'e' exponents in numbers. The old regex (just the non-type-0 portion): /^ \s* [1-5] (?: \s+ [0-9]+ ) (?: \s+ \-? [0-9]* \.? (...) (25 years ago, 14-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: DAT line parsing (was: Re: Datsville: crane2 (exponents?))
 
(...) <Snipped Regex stuff> (...) Those numbers weren't generated by Turbo Pascal (LEdit). They were generated by MLCad, the recent Windows LDraw program. This is one of the reasons I haven't used it very extensively. :) Jeff (25 years ago, 14-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
