I would like to see a follow me plugin for sketchup that will allow users to select multiple faces to follow along a line.

Like for instance in one of my maps I'm making a lab of sorts that has lots of piping and the original follow me tool is great but I would have to repeatedly use it for multiple pipes around in the same area. and would be great to just have to make said circular faces then use the follow me tool to extrude and follow along a path all in one go rather than just one pipe at a time..

I too am wondering if you can mess around with the geo locations mesh detail like give it more vertices before showing the terrain for a more precise terrain

Lss_toolbar Created by Krill btw. and its awesome... Puriod.

I don't know if yall want to know but seeing how I spent all day trying to find out why my stick group function wasn't working in sketchup 2016 pro I came across the answer

sketchup 2016 uses the newer version of ruby code. which makes the method to_a function not work unless you put it as lines.t_a first.

so in the lss_mshstick.rb

the problematic code is this
line1078 @settings_hash["stick_vec"]=[@stick_vec.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]
line1082 @settings_hash["bounce_vec"]=[@bounce_vec.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]

the new fixed code is this
line1078 @settings_hash["stick_vec"]=[@stick_vec.lines.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]
line1082 @settings_hash["bounce_vec"]=[@bounce_vec.lines.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]

so that fixed it for me though I'm still getting error msgs in the ruby console but its not affecting the function as far as I can tell.

so hope this helps you guys

Hi first of all i think your plugins are amazing, thank you for your time and effort on them

ok I have seemed to have found a solution for the stickgroup function in sketchup 2016.

sketchup 2016 uses the newer version of ruby code. which makes the method to_a function not work unless you put it as lines.t_a first.

so in the lss_mshstick.rb

the problematic code is this
line1078 @settings_hash["stick_vec"]=[@stick_vec.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]
line1082 @settings_hash["bounce_vec"]=[@bounce_vec.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]

the new fixed code is this
line1078 @settings_hash["stick_vec"]=[@stick_vec.lines.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]
line1082 @settings_hash["bounce_vec"]=[@bounce_vec.lines.to_a.join(";"), "vector_str"]

so that fixed it for me though I'm still getting error msgs in the ruby console but its not affecting the function as far as I can tell.

so hope this helps you guys

First and Foremost I would like to say this plugin is amazing and thank you for you time and effort. for it makes my life easier,

now with that said I seem to have run into a problem with the stick group tool on your lss toolbar for sketchup 2016 when I click on it nothing happens, it doesn't bring up the html page for editing, but all the other tools work just fine.

i use windows 10 os

i was thinking it just might be a file pathing problem seeing how sketchup 2016 uses two different directories for plugins and resources.

I.E for the resources folder is located in C:\Program Files\SketchUp\SketchUp 2016\Resources\en-US

meanwhile for the plugins them selves is located in C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2016\SketchUp\Plugins

but if all the other tools work i don't think its a pathing problem. i tried looking at your code to see if there was a discrepancy but i couldn't find anything wrong with it logic wise although I'm not too good with programming

i saw on one of your youtube posts that it might be six months before you get around to updating lss toolbar

please help i installed the plugin to the correct folders and unistalled then reinstalled and nothing seems to work.

oh and by the way your lss_arch is also pretty amazing. which i like a lot reminds me of the functionality of the good ol halflife 2/ source level editor i started using when when i got into modeling and level design.
