Points along Curve April 2, 2022, 12:07 p.m.
Hi guys,
I'm trying to rig a train (or a truck) with the locomotive in the front and several carriages / waggons behind it.
So far, I figured out the way to rig it, but I'd love to be able to move that rig along a curve while maintaining the distance between the waggons, based on the rig.
So, ultimately, what I need to do - constrain the points movement to a curve, while keeping their distance constant, driven by only one point (the locomotive).
Any ideas how I would go about that?
Thanks for your help!

Hey pabcou,
thanks so much for your reply!
That's exactly what I was looking for, even though you're right - it's not that quick
Thanks a lot!

TAB Menu - Reverse Search July 19, 2021, 8:59 a.m.
Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a way to "reverse search" for nodes in the TAB menu.
Being new to Houdini this kinda makes sense to me, to get used to find
the right SOPs plus find the ones that are alike.
For example, when I experiment with particles and would like to explore
more effectors like POP Wind, I'd love to have a quick way of finding
out, where in the TAB menu it is located - thus having the opportunity
to discover more SOPs that are similar.
I hope this kinda makes sense...
Thanks so much in advance!
Best,
Gregor
