difference--you could just as easily have added the peices without using
any sub-models.
I hope I was clear this time.

You're making a lot more sense now.  I understand better what you're trying
to say and I agree with where you're coming from.  Part of the purpose of
the OMR is to provide 3d virtual instructions, so this would help in this
case.  They should not be inlined.  However, if you make a submodel (to
ease creation in ldraw) that is not in the instructions and has nothing to
do with our moving parts idea, then it should be inlined so it appears like
it does in the actual instructions.

Bram, I think the reason we would have a submodel for that submodel is because it is an official submodel. We would inline it because it is stationary; it can't be moved from where it is. Take a look at a scan of the instructions, it might help to (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
