I am writing a pretty basic script for creating stepped contours as a polyline to eventually run on a kuka robot with an extruder head. Put simply my script does this: contours > splits contours into segments > creates “ramps” > merges ramps and segments. Both lists for the ramps and contours seem to order points normally but when I merge the two at the very top the line traces back on itself. I would like for the final ramp to just terminate into the final contour.
You might want to eliminate that top “ramp” that extends above the contoured brep? And FYI, the Move ‘Geometry’ input has 171 values but the ‘Motion’ input has only 168 values.
First, thank you. I hope wherever you are you get some good sailing weather in.
I think it’s at 168 values because i converted to segments between points. The ‘motion’ value will always be the # of points in the ramps short of the geometry.
