Loop Carried Value stop working with Select Facing node.

[LuiNogueira]

Hello!

I'm trying to create a stair generator with scene nodes, but as soon I use a Select Facing node inside a Loop Carried Value node the looping stop working. 

 

Does someone know what could be happening?

 

Thanks!

Select facing is the issue. Luckily it is an asset which you can convert to group from asset menu. Inside there is a "Proposed build Selection". Propagate the scope from append node and replace iterate indexes with iterate collection as shown

Hello @Hrvoje, awesome tip, thank you. 

You solved the Select Facing issue for the first half of the node tree, but as soon I added another Select Facing, but now selecting all polygons facing the Y+ direction (with the same changes you have proposed inside the node tree) it stopped working again. Do you know what could be happening?

 

Thank you very much for your help!

I haven't checked your setup in detail, but here it seems to work, check the scene

The setup is working but it's not optimized, it's creating unwanted geometry inside the stair. 

 

In the end, I needed to deliver the project so I went the old way by doing it manually.

 

Thank you very much  @Hrvoje

Sorry, diidn't have time to optimize the scene. You are aware that there is a stairs asset available which you can use? : )
