Wow...How nice. I really like this idea. I have been always behind the idea of separating those two universe, but couldn't realise that they could be both "separate" and "together" at the same time. Nice and elegant solution in my side. What's you (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) IMHO this numbering method makes no sense at all !! First, the 3 parts are not separable and makes no sense using them separated. LEGO decided to number them like if it was a _single_ part and have put the 32025 number in the _main_ part which (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) What about adding a "reference" catalog to the LDraw tree? It should be used for LDraw files with _exact_ part-number relations. The name could be "LDraw\LEGO", "LDraw\Official", or "LDraw\Reference" (the last is too long). Parts like the six (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Right now there is nothing "wrong" with the part, per se. The part number (71427) refers to a specific color for that composite item. The part is not actually any color - it is in #16. Right now, you could use that part as-is. The number is a (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I am truly sorry that we are going through this problem. But LDraw is a dual purpose program. The original purpose, and one that is still valid, useful, and needed, is that of a parts reference. A parts reference that depends on using TLG part (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
