hi list,

i wanted to create a gempatch which uses multiple cubes which are differently translated. i was wondering what makes the difference between using multiple gemheads which lead into one cube object vs using multiple cube objects and one gemhead ...

1. connecting multiple [gemhead]s to one single [cube] is bad (ok: not

so good) style but would lead to the wanted result. 2. if you are connecting multiple [cube]s to one [gemhead], you will need [separator] before the transformation in order to make this transformations independant of each other. but the good thing with this is, that you can apply transformations to all cubes in one go (for instance rotate the whole swarm)

maybe have a look at the 20page tutorial i haven't yet finished at http://gem.iem.at/tutorial/
