In another thread asp1vip asked: "Okay, so now does anybody have any ideas how I can link two props together so they both delete when the parent is deleted?" I decided to try an idea I have had for some time. If you delete a magnet all its three parts, mag, mag zone, and mag base, are deleted at once. I wondered what would happen if I replaced the default geometries in the magnets with poser props. After a bit of hacking I came up with the file linked above, it contains two objects, a Poser box and ball. Deleting ether object will delete the other. I can't say I have figured out why it works yet I'm still experimenting but it does work, which is the main thing. I will post an update when I know more. Right now I have CCNA exams to study for. The file linked above is a text file, just save it to a props pallet and rename the file extention to pp2.
