Guide to custom placing stuff on spline

[_Aka_]

List<CGVMesh> inputMeshes,
            SubArray<CGSpot> inputSpots,
            SubArray<CGSpot> outputSpots,
            [NotNull] CGVMesh[] outputMeshes,
            [NotNull] CGPath path,
            bool stretchToEnd,
            ThreadPoolWorker<CGSpot> threadPoolWorker

its rather difficult to understand the steps needed to get all this data in my own custom setup. I was hoping you could provide me some steps to get this data.

From my understanding I need to rasterize the spline first, then generate volume spots for it from the game objects I plan to use as well convert the meshes from the gameobjects into CGVMeshes.


Where would you suggest I begin?

If you want to follow the path of scenario B, which I don't recommand, the parameters you listed are commented and have their types commented, but as a small summary:

• CGVMesh  is the equivalent of Mesh
  
• CGSpot  is the equivalent of Transform + an index of the object to use the transform on.
  
• CGPath  has no equivalent in vanilla Unity, it's the list of points making a spline, result of its rasterization.
  
• SubArray<> is part of an array. This class exists to be able to reuse arrays easily instead of creating/destroying them every time.
  
• ThreadPoolWorker<> handles multi-threading.
  

To see how spots are created, check the InputSpots module.
To see how CGPath is created, check the InputSplinePath module.
To see how a CGVMesh is converted to a normal mesh, check the CreateMesh module, and especially the WriteVMeshToMesh method.

I hope this helped.
