Actually its NOT in the Base, it's in The Mag.

You can also use pose files to add deformTarget(s) to a magnet that is parented to a figure. This can be handy if you do this sort of thing a lot. For example you can have a pose file that sets all the body parts to be deformTarget(s). You would want to include a number of Mags in the pose file, because you don't just want it to work on a magnet named "Mag 1".

To show you the syntax of such a file, below in the text of a pose file that will add the left buttock, thigh, and shin to the influence of mags 1 through 6.

        deformTarget lShin

        deformTarget lThigh
        deformTarget lShin

        {
        deformTarget lButtock
        deformTarget lThigh
        deformTarget lShin
        }
}

There are also a number to such pose files included with MirrorMags32, available free from sharecg.
