* In VBS you declare variables only as a variant e.g. "dim PolygonCount". Mod Tool decides what type it becomes when it uses the variable the first time.

* The commands are not case-sensitive, e.g. you can write ''LogMessage'' or logmessage.
* You can put "option explicit" at the start of your script. Then you will be forced to declare all variables with "dim". That looks quite unnecessary but help to find mistakes for example if you mistyped a variable somewhere in a long script.

* Oni to ModTool (export) [wip]
* ModTool to Oni (import) [-]
 
I've to rewrite the export so that it is compatible with adding new TVs. With current export method the problem is that it calls too often an selection event which cannot be prevented. The selection event is meant to call an form where the user can modify the TV properties.
 
 
=====new door animations=====
creating new door animations


After a few experiments onisplit v0.9.54.0 seems to output XYZ-W instead of XYZW.

It wasn't tested yet and will probably need some tweaks to meet Oni's door orientation. Also, OBAN flag "ZAxisUp" needs some more investigation.
