Using Elefront in a Anemone Loop

about 2 years ago by muecke_me

Hi, thank yout for your tutorial. It finally helped me to understand the idea behind Elefront and I could solve quite a few problems with it. But now I am facing an new problem. I want to use Elefront inside an Anemone loop. What I want to do is: - Creating a set of geometry with attributes and then bake them (classic Elefront way). - First loop: Reference geometry by bake name. Then add or remove certain geometry in this list and bake geometry with the same name. Inside the loop I actually only use the counter from Anemone to modify my list of geometry. The D0 in- and output is acutally not really in use. - Second loop: Reference geometry from first loop and again add or remove certain geometry and bake geometry and so on... To make this possible I have to refresh the reference by bake name component inside the loop all the time. Therefore I connected a timer to it. Furthermore I connected a permanent True button to the bake component. I thought this way could work but somehow it doesn't. Depending on the calulation time inside the loop and the timer rate refreshing the reference by bake name component it sometimes fails. Sometimes it references the double amount of objects that actually exist... Do you know a proper way to handle this problem? I discovered that the reference by bake name component has a context menue where you find an option caled update component. I thought that this might solve my problem with the timer to make the timer superfluous but I cannot click on that option and I dont know if it is a bug or if I do something wrong. I use version Elefront 430. I would be very thankful if you could give me a hint how to deal with that issue. Kind regards, Michael
