i'm just wondering which takes up more thermo, recorded animation or logic? if recorded animation takes up less space then i can see an interesting way of getting accurate movement even if you have shaky hands. for instance, i just put up a little and rather pathetic tutorial on making a platform do a figure of eight. people suggested that you would be able to do that with the MOVE animations, but some pointed out that it wouldn't be so accurate... so i was thinking, what if you made it with logic so that it followed a set path and then moved it along that path with the MOVE and recorded it. you could then remove the logic and be left with a very accurate animation.

Hmm... that sounds pretty cool. does it work like you said? if so, that be very useful. *mew

I'm going to try it later tomorrow when i get the MOVE pack... oh? then I'll go ahead and try it out myself little later today then. I'll tell ya if it works. *mew

Well I'm pretty sure it'll take less thermo, it's only one piece of logic after all. but the recorded animation logic is better IMO in someways then custom logic. but that may be just how I'm seeing it. It needs testing and stuff to know for sure. *mew Edit: Err.... It somewhat works.... it depends on how you go about it. problem is you have to grab it in order to make it record, and the MOVE wants to override the logic movement. but there are work around to get what you said to work... but I think I'll let you find out and test it out for yourself. as I don't know how to deal with it very well yet. *mew

i'm just wondering which takes up more thermo, recorded animation or logic? Well, depends on how much logic, but more than one or two components will probably take up more than a single Motion Recorder.

I wouldnt say the motion recorder is all that great for platforms; its shaky for starters, and also, if you have it set to loop, it will start the loop from wherever the last one ended. So, unless youre absolutely precise, it will slowly drift off in some direction.

So, unless youre absolutely precise, it will slowly drift off in some direction. If you record holding the move controller vertically, it will record via ball tracking instead of tilt, which is a lot smoother. Also, if you press X while recording you can turn on absolute loop mode, which will make it do the same motion repeated, in the exact same place.
