6.06 new paint visualizer | smart component

Hello,
Is there more information somewhere about setting up the smart components for the new spray visualization?

Neily03

Yes a tutorial would be good on this.

Neily have you tried anything yet?  I cant find that first system node that defines the A1brush...

Got it.

1. Create your smart component. 
2. Add the three components
3. create an i/o signal for that smart component.  this will receive the signal from the controller
   
4. add connections between components (I used the design tab)
5. Then the key is to go into simulation tab > station logic > design tab > select the drop down from your controller > select A1brush > then make a connection between that unit, and your new spray simulator
   

Now your controller GO for A1brush will trigger your newly created smart component...

the next thing I am trying to figure out is how to simulate with multiple parts.
The PaintApplicator component will only accept 1 part.

I guess you could either
1) Use one Applicator component for each part,
2) Update the Part property as the robot moves to a new part, or
3) Merge the parts into a single part.

I tried 1, it produced some funky results.

I think 2 would be the best route in my case, but I haven't figured it out yet.

3 is difficult in my situation unfortunately.

So after a bit trial and error we've got this working:

There is a bug with using multiple applicators that will be addressed in 6.07. (They would unintentionally share the same texture.)
