Move symbol on Z axis

[PvWarch]

Hi,

 

I tried to insert a symbol in a marionette script. It inserts at z=0 But when I try to move the symbol along the z axis strange things happen. Can anyone tell me what's wrong? If you disconnect the move node the pillow's are at the correct position but on z=0 See attachment for details.

The strangeness has to do with your network structure through the IF nodes. The IF wants two data set options versus functioning as a post node downstream routing control like you're attempting. Rather than 2 IF and 3 Separate Symbol/Move commands, you can do this with a single IF, Symbol and Move command. Use the IF to determine if it should insert 1 or 2 pillows as you are but rather than directing the symbol name string, have it direct either the single insertion point, or a list of insertion points for multiple pillows. The symbol node is able to process the list of multiple points, so a single node will run twice if a list of 2 points are sent to it, and then the move command will handle the list of both pillows. I've attached a tweaked version for you to check out.
