Hi

This is a nice little thing.

is a slightly altered version were the ball is aligned to a spline, very basic stuff as you can see… I’ve been trying to wrap my head around an Xpression where the ball also moves up and down in the Y axis as it rolls along the spline. (just like a roller coaster) Right now it only stays at “ground level” regardless of the spline shape. I figure a small expression could fix this. Unfortunately my Xpresso skills are still very basic.



If any of you Xpresso heavyweights out there could take a quick look at how this could be done I’d appreciate the feedback because I’m eager to learn more Xpresso than the little I know at the moment and I find a great way is to analyze existing setups together with the manual.



Kind Regards / Alex
