Title: Twist segments along spline
Post by: xpp_nd_ruphus on July 26, 2014, 12:43:25 AM
any updates about twisting segments? this feature will be very useful in road creation, for example on curved bridges, or in rollercoster creation
at the moment i see only one possibility to make rotation of road profile - using surface in RC created with lofted Civil3d character line

With the latest update you can conform RailClone to a surface, and align segments with the surface's normal (see several examples in the RC 2.3 demoreel (https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/AXyfCfhJsKI)). This should solve cases as roads or bridges.

Anyway, we have plans to add specific twist controls, but this is not an simple process and we have many features in the to-do list. It may take some time yet.
