Copy sop rotate

Hey there, Vincent here using touchdesigner on a macbook M2

I want to make something very simple but I can’t get my head arround how. I have a line that I want to put on a copy. However, when I do that all the lines are pointing in the same direction, I want each line to rotate 15.6 degrees to get a 23 x a line that points outwards from the circle.

What is the thing i’m missing? hope someone knows the answer! Tnx <3

Hi @VincentWestra,

In the Copy SOP set the Number of Copies parameter to “23” and the Rotate - rz - parameter to “15.6”.

The parameter groups of the Copy SOP use 3 parameters to represent transformations in 3D. So the Rotate parameter group is comprised of 3 individual parameters, namely rx, ry, and rz.
When you click onto the Rotate parameter group the 3 individual parameters will open up and also allow for entering an expression.
This is nice as now you could derive the rotation directly from the number of copies:

360 / me.par.ncy

Now you can change the number of copies and the angle is automatically taken care of for you.

Hope this helps a bit
cheers

yea that helped! Tnx. <3
