Hmm, I'm using the cone primitives in 30384... How do the cone
primitives work? The geometry of the canopy doesn't match either the
con3 or the con4 primitive... right now I am scaling 1-4con4 to create
part of the half-cone, and then using it again to extend it, but I'm
afraid it is going to be a Pain to line up the edges. Has anyone else
run into this problem using the con primitives? What's the best way
around this? Should I just make my own primitives that match the
geometry and submit them for voting?
