Simple array with fixed count and distance

[KB3984]

Hello friends,
I just started learning RC, but I can`t figure out, how to do simple array with fixed count of segments and distance.
I want to do stadium seating, where I have 25x seats at each row (seat is 450mm wide) with distance of 50mm between each, also each row have to start at first vertex of spline and finally I want to clip area for stairs, but dont want seats to be sliced, but removed if intersecting. Thanks in advance

Hi,

Thanks for the question. Please see the attached file for a possible solution. I've made the following changes.

- Removed the clipping splines and used the base spline to place the stairs instead. This is done by adding additional vertices and setting the stairs segment to a material ID of 2. You can then stop chairs from appearing here by turning in Limits in the generator's settings
- Wired the chair to the default input and added a padding of 50mm. As far as I can see you can either have a fixed spacing value OR a fixed number of chairs. I don't see how you can have both as the splines are different lengths.

I hope that helps, please let me know if you have any further questions.

Many Thanks,

Paul
