Snarlygribbly;

Could I induce you to create a PropLight MkII Python script? While working on AppleJack's Treehouse 2, I am frustrated that I can't save nested/parented props with all parented lights.

For example, I have a haze ring prop parented to the construct. The haze ring conceals the UV seam between sky and ground. I have three area lights parented to the construct, in a line which emanates from where the moon appears in the texturing JPEG. I want to be able to save the construct prop with subset -to include the parented haze ring prop- and include the three parented area lights.

Example 2: I made an interior lamp for the Treehouse 2. I want to be able to save the interior lamp prop as a smart prop (retaining its parenting to the Treehouse), along with its subset (parented Firefly IDL emitter prop), and its parented point light.

This should be included with the next iteration of Poser (P12). If I save a prop it should include:

[A] parenting, both upward and downward (subset and smart)

[B] Lights or anything else (cameras? figures?) parented to that prop.

Is this feasible?
