Well... if that's so, then I can see why you're confused by my question.  LOL  When this sort of things happens, it's probably fair to assume that Cage is confused and he goofed somewhere.  Hmm.  I'm wondering if I may have down something which created a reference loop in my test code and I ended up re-setting the distance values I was tracking.  Should have used copies of the values, perhaps.  At any rate, I was getting funny results, and I checked the hit dists (as there were in the list to which I'd logged them) against the point-distances and the hit dists were very high.  (A distance of 5.0, say, compared to 0.2).  I think I probably did something odd in one of my loops.

Thanks for the explanation.  :D  If I keep asking embarassing questions like this, I'll understand everything in NO TIME!  Then - watch out, everyone!  LOL

Thank you for being patient.  :D

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
