Just a note, if you want to simplify all your calculations for the curve of the wire, you can use trig functions. |

I don't know of any function to make it simpler. Unless maybe there is a function for a 3D parabola that I can use to calculate the x, y and z all at ones. |

cool resource though i probably wont ever use it in a build. |

Any scripter know the best way to save extra data? The only way I can think of is using a separate file. However I think I would need to use a radius search to find each bricks for the wire to attach to, which seems extremely inefficient. |
