Why every time i create a plain with
make object plain 1,100,100
do the z cords come out +/- 0.000004?
50.000000;50.000000;-0.000004;,
-50.000000;50.000000;0.000004;,
50.000000;-50.000000;-0.000004;,
-50.000000;50.000000;0.000004;,
-50.000000;-50.000000;0.000004;,
50.000000;-50.000000;-0.000004;;
as if the plain had been rotated ever so slightly.
I was going to tile a few plains together to mess around with different effects. But with this slight rotation i would get a horrible seam between tiles.
I was playing with memblocks at the time and was trying to teach myself how to use them, but i kept getting strange results for the z value of the verts. so i printed mesh to a file and it showed the z values above.
here is the code i used to look at the memblock data for the mesh
sync on
sync rate 0
make object plain 1,100,100
make mesh from object 2,1
make memblock from mesh 3,2
