Some strange issue with generator
#1
   
   

Hello there, 

I have a small issue that i do not know how to solve on the generated mesh that the generator creates. 

The mesh does not seem to follow the placement of the spline as it should. Thus this means that if i have a player that runs on the track that i am creating with the generator it will seem as if he is flying some times or digging into the ground. 

I thought it may be my issue in the start but i checked my track again and again and it seems that the mesh that is generated is behaving a bit weird when there is a 3D space orientation for the creation of the track followed. 

Check screenshots to understand the problem better.

   

One more screenshot to make it a bit clear.

I am not sure i have found a solution about this.

But i think it is my bad understanding of the plugin so far.

I think this may be happening because i created way to many sloppy CPs with really weird angles against each other.

If i disable the auto handles and i try to make them myself then it seems that i can correct this issue.

Pardon my sillyness.

What you saw is because of the difference between the spline curvature and the polygonal mesh that was created to follow it. Here is an exaggerated example I drawn of a curved slope. In black is the curved spline, and in red a very low poly approximation of it
   
So, to avoid that you will have to increment your mesh's density. This is something you can tune in the Shape Extrusion module. For example, when changing the Angle Threshold to 0.2, I had this result:

After
   

Did this answer your question?

OH yes i think you are right. That is why i said before that i might be a little noobish in my question before. Yeah i have to read up more of the documentation i guess before asking.

Thanks a lot for spending time with my issue. What you said makes perfectly sense.
