Example
This handler accepts any number of arguments, adds all the numbers passed in as parameters, and
then returns the sum:
on AddNumbers
sum = 0
repeat with currentParamNum = 1 to the paramCount
sum = sum + param(currentParamNum)
end repeat
return sum
end
You would use it by passing in the values you wanted to add:
put AddNumbers(3, 4, 5, 6)
-- 18
put AddNumbers(5, 5)
-- 10

Description
3D property; when used with a model, camera, light or group reference, this property allows you
to get or set the parent node of the referenced object. The parent node can be any other model,
camera, light or group object.
An object’s
transform
property defines its scale, position and orientation relative to its
parent object.
Setting an object’s parent property to
VOID
is the same as removing the object from the world
using the
removeFromWorld()
command.
Setting an object’s parent property to the World group object (
group("World")
) is the same as
adding an object to the world using the
addToWorld()
command.
