Gap between spline mesh segments
#11
Hi

The solution I see that will avoid the small gaps is to use a single spline for the extrusion, but:

Is it for performance reasons? If so, you can still do the following:

Use the same spline for the whole track, but have multiple generators having shape extrusion. Each extrusion will be for a part of the track (using the Range parameter of the Shape Extrusion module). Then, when you update the spline, make sure only the relevant extrusion is refreshing, while the others do not refresh (by setting the Auto Refresh parameter to false for the generators that you don't want to refresh).

What do you think about this idea?

Have a nice day
