Would I be painful if I was to ask if the angle could be selectable so it could be set for 45deg and 0 deg, just so all the arrays are in one spot? (Im looking at the script and dont understand any of it to try to do it myself)

Thanks everyone for your input!

Added angle input and 3d capability so face can be tilted.

One plugin to rule them all.
'Array plugin' which has the Triangular, Rectangular, and Rectangular on 45deg (or defineable angle) arrays.
Possible?

Sure.

Well yeah.! But Chris F's Components onto Faces already does that function, so...

Obviously you are a very talented programmer, so in my opinion it's a little waste for you to do something does already exist. Or might exist in next versions of thoose plugins.

Well I don't know all that exists. I simply see a request and try to offer a solution. If Chris has a plugin that does this then it is no doubt better than mine I would suggest you use it.

Adam ended up doing a 0.5 instead of 2... i think thats what you meant? or did i get my x/y's the wrong way...

pt0.offset!(ya,interval*0.5)

either got it
I'll post further questions to the plugin page
