Railway sleepers with new sleeper at each corner

(1/1)

HI All

I'm not sure I've described this is the best possible manner, but It's all I can think of right now (so apologies)

The aim is to follow the outer edge of a shape with railway sleepers. With a new sleeper starting at each corner instead of a bevel (see attached ref image)
I am unable to have railclone make the sleepers end at each corner and a new sleeper to start with the offset of 10cm (sleeper thickness). Any solution i've come close with isnt 100% right and corners facing opposite directions are just facing the opposite way.

Here is an example (see closest corner)


Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Please see the attached sample. To recreate it you'd need to do the following:

- For the Segment, disable Bend and Slice
- Wire a Null segment to the Corner input.
- For Generator > Rules > Default settings, enable Adaptive mode and turn off Scale Padding
- For Generator > Rules > Corner set Bevel mode to none.
- Now adjust the Padding for the sleeper. Add a positive Right padding to move the sleeper following the corner, and then a negative left padding value to close up the gaps.

I hope that helps,

Paul

Ah so simple when you explain it, thanks Paul!
