Title: Always inside when using L1S & closed splines BUT without having to reverse
Post by: RC2292 on January 18, 2020, 03:37:53 PM

Maybe I've missed something simple or someone can point me in the right direction.

I'd like to be able to have the LS1 always generate on the inside of closed splines without the need to reverse the spline or clicking reverse in the generator geometry section.
Is that possible?

Thanks

RailClone is dependant on where the spline starts. Splines has first vertex (Yellow indicator). By reversing spline You switch First and Last Spline vertices.
It is very predictable if You consistently draw all Your splines clockwise then all will be aligned the same way and no reversing will be needed.

This is good info.  I had given up even trying to predict the direction because it seemed like it was completely arbitrary.  Now, I will try to consciously draw them clockwise.
