The Attached-track container is used by KIND SceneryWithTrack to identify a list of track subcontainers. Each track derives its name from the subcontainer's tag name. These names are used from script. Each track is auto-generated spline track through attachment points located within the default mesh.

  • Attached-tracks update automatically to the spline track connected to it in Surveyor. You may over-ride this auto-update feature by adding useadjoiningtracktype 0 (see below).
  • Correct track end attachment orientation is essential. The Y axis must point ‘out’ at the correct angle. The Z axis must point ‘up’.

[edit] Track subcontainer

Each track subcontainer supports the following tags and subcontainers. Each tag is shown here with its default value.

track                   (no default value, this must be track kuid)
useadjoiningtracktype   1
vertices                {}


[edit] track

Type: Kuid
Desc: Kuid of the track or spline to be used.

[edit] useadjoiningtracktype

Type: Boolean
Desc: If true (1) then the track type will change to match that of the first track joined to the object.

[edit] vertices

Type: Vertices container
Desc: This is a list of attachment points that defines where the track will attach to the mesh, and the path of the track through the mesh. Each entry must have a unique name.
