Calculate distance between control points.
#1
Big Grin 
First post and fairly new to curvy.

Any suggestions on how I could go about calculating the distance between two control points on the same spline? My plan is to dynamically create a control point at the mid point between two control points.

Thanks!

Hi Nico, did you figure out how to do it?

Each CP have a Length property as well as a Distance one. The latter tells the Distance from the start of spline.
So if you want to split a segment in half do something like:

Code:
var pos=spline.InterpolateByDistance(cp.Distance+cp.Length/2);
var newCP=spline.InsertAfter(cp);
newCP.position=pos;

Thanks Jake. I assume this'll work like a charm.
