Gained a new fustration
Objects seem to have an axis independant of the "Object axis" or "viewport axis"
Turning the model or it's axis appears to do squat when moving a point with a point3 declaration. Moving the axis also doesn't do anything. maybe Im missing something?
/*************************************************/
/*** Script in progress made to flatten points ***/
/*** Created by: VBSmiles ***/

/*** declaration ***/
#command("object"); /*1*//* To start as menu item ? */
point3 $c_point, $ModLoc; /*2*//* current point */
float $dist; /*6*//* Distance between points and ... */
shape $model;
int $test, $i, $NP;
file $file;
string $Output;
/*** Initialization ***/
$model = project.curObject.LookupShape("mesh01");
$ModLoc = $model.loc;
/*** Get the number of points in model ***/
if ($model != NULL)
{
$model.Open();
$NP = $model.GetNumPoints();
for $i = 0 to $NP do
{
/* Get the selected point */
$test = $model.GetPointSelected($i);
/*** if selected then store it's values ***/
if ($test == 1)
{
$c_point = $model.GetPoint ($i);
$c_point.y = $ModLoc.y;
/*** move the point ***/
$model.SetPoint ($i, $c_point);
}
}
$model.Close();
refresh();
$file.open("$console", "w");
$Output = PrintToString("Parent Location:%e", $ModLoc.y);
$file.print("\n" +$Output+ "\n");
$file.close;
} else
{
$file.open("$console", "w");
$file.print("\n\n where the hell is the model? \n\n");
$file.close;
}In my code, I used the Parent location to play around with it a little. but even this seems effected by this "invisible axis"
