Thinking out loud..... I want to make this as automatic as possible. Instead of working each body part separately, it should be possible to choose at startup which set of parts you want to control. But because of ERC, any part can actually be controlled by any other part. So this could turn into a very long analysis... looking at [effects on 10 parts] * [control by 20 parts]! The basic question is: can I count on the controller always being upstream in terms of parenting? If so, the matrix becomes manageable. On Misaki, for example, the breasts actually reside on LCollar and RCollar, but their morphs are controlled by Chest. So if you select RCollar and LCollar as the parts you want to control, the script would look upstream to Chest, then to Abd, Hip, Body. It can save time by doing one check for each, and skipping the frame-analysis when a controller does nothing to the desired area.
