Is there any way that one can attach one geo to some other geo in Houdini? I have animated vehicle that I need to attach a simple light to or a smoking exhaust. Seems simple but almost impossible in Houdini. In 3dsMax it was a click of a mouse so I thought maybe there is something in Houdini too. Hopefully doesn't include a page of code. You guys know any workarounds?
Thanks

If you're talking /obj, just wire them together.

If you're talking sops, a simple way is to isolate a point on the parent, then copytopoints the child onto that point.

There's lots of other ways, but those should cover the use cases you're talking about.

Omg mestela thank you so much man. I can't believe I didn't try that SOP idea as it makes so much sense.
I know about OBJ context with wiring GEO together but my question was about the SOP context and "copy to points" did the trick magnificently. I was fearing some Attribute Wrangle business haha Thank you once again man.
