Weird Invisible Link
If you go inside KL18301, select KL18301_Drawer3 and move it in the 3D view, the UBX_KL18301_Drawer3 will move with it. With no visible connection between them.
I've never seen anything so mysterious. If you open the scene be careful, cause this is weird stuff.

Re: Weird Invisible Link
Very strange indeed
I can not Expand the UBX_KL18301_Drawer3-colonly's OwnerMatrix
It does not have a Material
The name for the ORA is CollisionTemplate

same for me but if you disconnect it from inside it will not move with the drawer. Reconnect and it will. Seems the matrix info is just in the outer connector not the transform node.

Re: Weird Invisible Link
Go inside the UBX_KL18301_Drawer3-colonly object and disconnect all of the Transform's connectors
Go Outside and delete the OwnerMatrix Note this is not normal as the OwnerMatrix should not be there when you disconnect the Transform

Re: Weird Invisible Link
Here is a minimal demo. A cube and a grouped sphere. Run the script to try it out. It shows that the Node.ConnectTo can make connections that can't be shown in the link editor.
If you run the command
System.Trace(Node.LinkedInputNode(cube, "OwnerMatrix", 0))
it confirms the link from the cube to the sphere inside the group.

Re: Weird Invisible Link
This is true for 2D encapsulated objects too

Re: Weird Invisible Link
I loved that show and book. Some of the connections were kind of tenuous but it was still good stuff.
Re: Weird Invisible Link
There is Invisible Links with the VRay scripts too
Even more ODD , is the VRay Background script connecting an Input to an Input, verses an Output to an Input
Not sure how it even works, but it does
Note: This screenshot shows no connections after running the above script

Code: Select all
Node.ConnectTo("%THIS_NAME%", "Background_Color", Space.CurrentScene() + "/PhotoRender", "Background Color")
