Using Prefabs with transformations reset to original state when using Deform mesh
#1
Hi there,

We're using Curvy Splines to create deformed pipes. We're using various pipe parts but would like to rotate these separately on the spline to create a more varied pipe appearance. To do this we used the original pipe and created new rotated Prefabs from this one. The problem is that as soon as I put them on the spline (using Deform and volume spots) they are reset to their original Prefab state (no transformations).

Is there something I miss or is it just not possible to create variety in this way?

Have a great weekend!
Dan

Hi
The Input GameObject module indeed gets rid of the transform of the object. To apply a transform, one right now needs to use the Translation/Rotation/Scale in the Properties section of the module.
You question makes me think about adding support for the input gameobject transform in an upcoming update. Do you have any suggestions or special requests?
Thanks and have a nice day

Thanks for your prompt reply!

I've added the same Prefab into the Input GameObject list using three new slots and can now change rotation separately. Awesome! Thanks.

A few minor issues occuring but I'll try to solve them. When adding more than 2 Prefabs to the list they get separated (small space in between the prefabs) on the spline.

Have a great weekend.
