Grow precision bug or fault by me???
-
Hi,
i made a helix wit a radius of 10m, a pitch of 5m and 5 turns. One full turn has 24 segments. Now i tried to distribute 60 Objects along the helix by Grow. But the last object differs 0,2 meters from the height of the helix. Am I doing something wrong or is this an bug of "Grow". Any help would be welcome to me.

Your measurement isn't correct. Your measurement doesn't start at the bottom of the second-to-last pillar. It is still .42m.

You can work it out by taking 5m and dividing it by 12 = 0.416666666666666m NOT your 0.42m.
Thus you have introduced a small error, these all add up over the many copies, until you are ~0.2m out at the top !

Redo it with 5m/12=0.416666666666m and it's OK
