  • move selected vertices (spline) to target helper axis.

    ive got to animate a ton of splines, representing communication links between ground stations and satellites. as the satellites orbit the earth, the ground station connections jump from one satellite to the next, always connected to the satellite which is closest overhead. . if it was a handful id hand animate them, but there are thousands.

    im imagining either a nice script, or a stack of vol.select (or ty-select) modifiers on the spline cloud, one for each satellite. , those linked to mesh volumes representing the area of coverage of the respective satellite. this could probably get me the correct vertices selected, but how to use the modifier stack to move them to a specified target/helper?

    any suggestions of scripts/plugins or modifiers that may help with this, most appreciated

    ok sorted.. good old tyflow.. ty-select and ty-conform works a treat.
