Cone loader in examples
Having caught this on the live editor stream one time i took a look at it the other day and its impressive but what i want to know is does the creator which i think was matatues ( spelling sorry ) do this for fun. Its looks so neat , inside my tracks its like a bombs hit it. When things go wrong takes me days to find the source.
Looks very impressive though , dont understand the fullness of it though, Math is something with my english - none existant.
I must remember to tidy up in my tracks

Is there an actual question in this thread or are you basically just telling everyone that your work is messy?

The thread asked a question as well as giving a meaning , the side dish was just an added touch of humanity creeping into virtuality.
a shout out to someones work while poking fun at computer maths wizard ( Banter ). trust someone to see the back end of post
But yes it asked a question but wasnt too bothered about an answer.
maybe the " what i want to know part " might give you a clue
Nice christmas hat

I must be blind becasue i don't see a "what i want to know" part as far as the editor is concerned. This thread would be more appropriate in the general section or, even better, a private message.

maybe so jonny your proberbly correct maybe you would like to go through all my posts and decide where i should put them. Dont you have anything better to do than this , it was doing fine just being ignored so why bump it up if it was so wrong.
agreed it was proberbly pointless but come on dude get a grip.. why is it such a concern of yours. It was concerning the editor so i put it here and was generally being an interactive member. Why moan about this really ? whats the point of it. If it was that wrong it would have been moved or deleted. Unless your a moderator of the room then i suggest you dont spend to much time worrying about one silly little post. leave that to them i would say.
Whats the point of it really i posted this yesturday it was going down to disapear , come on dude find someone else to bother

I think you may be over exaggerating this whole situation. My initial question was a genuine one. I wanted to know if there was anything you needed help with to see if i could help out.
Your last post is a joke to the point where i cant even take it seriously enough to give a proper response. Essentially the entire post is just rambling about how i shouldn't have responded to this thread (because that's not what forums are for right?) and how i was apparently moaning (which i wasn't).
All i can say is I wont be responding to any more of your [many] editor question threads regardless if of i could be of help or not.

calm down bud , think we got crossed lines , i thought you you was being funny towards me dude so replied with abit of sarcasm. My opologise if this the case and i dont mind if they delete it because its wasnt that important and seems we took each other the wrong way.. My bad from my side dude
dont wanna you having the wrong imression i was also messing around in my first reply. Trying to have abit of fun that was all dude.
I honestly thought you was just posting in it to be annoying sorry dude it did read like that. Anyway it wasn't a thought out post anyway i was just in here posting some other question and rememberd i had come across it and not sure if you have seen it its pretty impressive , the loader that is.
hope this sorts it out bud , no reason for us to have bad vibs over a silly post missunderstood post 
Spit and shake on it

In the example track where you cannot lean, there is a device at the end that drops cones onto the highway. Without loading the track I am going to guess this uses an Emitter.
Place an Emitter into your machine and set the spawning rate to the time between drops. Link it to an object, like a cone, and attach the Emitter to a moving object. For simplicity, have the object move in a straight line from point A to point B.

It actually moves the cones to the locations with a whole bunch of object getter/pointer/arrays and drops them there with physics on. I know very little of the actual mechanics of those specific code tools so seeing that pre-built is quite overwhelming and I cannot explain the exact workings.
It's just timed well, so when the robot thing moves along it's path, it looks like it drops cones out of nowhere, but they are actually out of sight in the code area.

Yeah thats the one
Theres a whole heap of logic to the side of the track which is somewhat very impressive to say the least. Not that i look at the example tracks much but did see it on the editor and thought i would check it out. Im surprised nobody has condensed it and robbed it with that tool that turns it all into a smaller package. Tried to look what was being used and work maybe a smaller version my self on a track that i am banging packed with animation and physics for abit of fun but i think teri was crorect arrays and object getter are being used so that halted me anyfurther. Nope math for me lol. Will stick with just opes and lots of impulse delays lol
