Dean, sorry... been extremly busy lately with a number of things, some Poser related, others not. I've worked with quite a number of tests durring my development of ERC. Some of which very similar to what you describe. I agree, it lends itself to some great possiblities. It becomes a matter of finding a 'happy medium'... because nothing will always solve every problem all of the time. There will be times that it just doesn't work the way you'd like. What you mention in #12 is something that has been around for a long time... "ghost joints". I don't remember who's responsible for that one, but it was back in the early p3 days. Useful? Yes. When combined with ERC... the possibilities are scary. :)

Jim, loops become unpredicable. Do they work? Not that I've seen. Some will react exponentially, others don't respond at all (possibly due to cancelling each other out) and in some cases cause poser to crash or act oddly.
