(...) I choose rays so that they may orient one face. With this face I use a sort of flood-fill algorithm (please try to find on of my previuos message) to orient al neighbors. Once a face is oriented, I don't look at it anymore. But, your idea (...) (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Sorry Leonardo, but I checked 105 again my code: it does the right job! Ok, you can argue it's pure luck. In fact, it is! If a ray went through the hole between the flag and the rest of the piece, my code would invert the flag orientation. (...) (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Don´t bother to dig the set up. Tore found an instuction scan at (URL) it clearly shows that the track parts from this set also have slots in them. Greetings, Manfred Moolhuysen. (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) The last three parameters define a vector, not angles. The nested commands are rotated <angle> degrees around the vector. To rotate 45 degrees around X, do: 0 ROTATE 45 1 0 0 ... To rotate -45 degress around Y, you can do this: 0 ROTATE 45 0 (...) (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
