Hi everybody,
I am designing a football stadium with round corners and putting the seats into them is giving me a hard time.
Let me illustrate my problem with a picture:
So each seat has a width of 0.5m. Along the "a" lines it's a simple task using the array tool since I have full control over the length of that lines.
However, in the corners of the stadium the length of the "b" line varies, such that I need to put in the maximum number of seats without them overlapping and have some space between them. In the case of the pictures that is 5 seats with 0.075m between them.
Again, along a straigth line this is not a problem in principle with the array tool, but it is a hell lot of work for a complete stadium. So any idea, how I could possibly copy my seat components along a "connected" path with the array tool such that it will maximise the number of seats on each section without the seats overlapping?
I tried the copy along path plugin, but I couldn't make it work, since I understand you only have control about the distance between two seats. Since I do not know the space between seats, this can't be used along the "b" lines.
Any advice very much appreciated!
Thanks, Markus
