Friends sets released in 2015

The missing parts are listed here:
https://forums.ldraw.org/thread-24146.html

I am currently working on this issue that involves unit conversion to LDraw (currently all units are first converted to mm and then to ldu).

And I came up with the following conversion ratios:

[Micron/Micrometer(μm): 400μm * 0.0025ldu/μm = 1ldu]

Millimeter(mm): 0.4m * 2.5ldu/mm = 1ldu

Centimeter(dm): 0.04m * 25ldu/cm = 1ldu

[Decimeter(dm): 0.004m * 250ldu/dm = 1ldu]

Meter(m): 0.0004m * 2500ldu/m = 1ldu

Inch(in, ″): 1/64in * 64ldu/in = 1ldu

Foot(ft, ′): 0.001312336ft * 762ldu/ft ~ 1ldu


Please take a look if I got everthing right.

* everthing in [] is just here for completness, allthough micron is actually a valid unit in 3mf files.

For free-form stand-alone vertexes, one decimal is usually enough. However, when a vertex is defined by a circular primitive, rotated subparts or the intersection of slanted surfaces, then more decimals are needed. I've tried working with three decimals, but tools like Edger2 will not always recognize the presence of a cond line rounded to three decimals. Similar results with overlap- and gap-finding tools.

The official parts library specifications state "In general, three decimal places are sufficient for parts, subparts, and primitives representing portions of parts that are not intended to be scaled (for example, studs, pegs, peg-holes, clips, hinge ends, etc.). Four decimal places should be used for high-res primitives and any primitives designed to be scaled (for example, cylinder sections, boxes, rectangles, discs, edges, etc.) as this allows such primitives to be scaled by a factor of ten while still preserving three decimal places of accuracy.".

I'd like to amend this by allowing 4 decimal places to be used for

• vertexes on a rotational plane of symmetry (e.g. 30, 45, and 72 degree planes),
  
• intersections calculated by isecalc,
  
• any vertex that is defined by a scaled primitive.
  

Currently, we have cylindrical polygons with 8, 16, and 48 sides. So, if a part needs a 1-6 sweep, we are forced to use the 48-sided polygon. For very large radii, even 48 sides is not enough. We have 84-sided polygons on the tracker. When we need a cylinder with the number of faces divisible by 5, a custom 50-sided polygon becomes used. What if 16 points are too coarse and 48 points are too dense?

I'd like to solve these by introducing 12, 24, 60, and 84-sided cylinders. The 12-sided is a nice replacement for the 8-sided because three segments make much nicer corners than 2 segments. The 24-sided is perfect when 48 is too much and 16 too little. Both allow 1-6 sweeps. The 60-sided cylinder is more usable than the 50-sided cylinder in that it is divisible by both 3 and 4. The point of the 84-sided cylinder is that the vertexes are distributed differently (divisible by 4, but not by 8) than any multiple of 48, thus allowing vertex optimization at large radii.

The 60-sided cylinder would be used at radii above 36.
The 84-sided cylinder would be used at radii from 80 to 120.

Here's a table showing the segment length for different radii and polygons. Below are recommendations for minima and maxima (radii and segment length) for each polygon optimized for segment length.
   

The polygon "4" is just a corner made out of one quad at a 45 degree angle.

Moved To's shouldn't point to Moved To's.  Here's a list of the current parts that do that:
(Note: I didn't vet every part here. There may be false positives or some reason not to untangle the redirects but the default should be that Moved To's should point correctly)

The naming convention for part 87079 seems to start off being hexadecimal and then kinda goes random but there are gaps like there is no 87079PC or PD, PE, PJ to L etc. So what number am I supposed to use? Should I just fill one of the gaps?

Now that more duplo trains and cars are modeled, we should think about the primitives for the hitches aka tow pins, tow loops, and tow clips. Duplo hitches come in many types and variants. However, when minor differences are ignored, it boils down to a handful tow pins and tow hooks.

Hello,

I'm going to create part 16292 (Plastic Triangle 6 x 12 Sail with 'HLC-37' Pattern) for Friends/DP/Elves OMR project and I have some questions.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cat...2#T=C&C=12

The part shape is similar but obviously different to currently existing plastic sail u66 (the shoulder near the top and the hole for horizontal beam).

1. There are several print variants sharing the same cutting die, but we have no unprinted version.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/search.page...x%2012#T=A
So I suggest as follows (u9179 is the u-number assigned to me):
u9179 Sail  6 x 12 Triangular Modern : unprinted version
u9179p01 Sail  6 x 12 Triangular Modern with Orange and Red Pattern : Part 93383 (Year 2011)
u9179p02 Sail  6 x 12 Triangular Modern with with "HLC-37" Pattern on Back Side : Part 16292 (Year 2014, the only variant printed on opposite side)
u9179p03 Sail  6 x 12 Triangular Modern with Dark Blue Wave in Circle and Dark Azure, Dark Blue and Green Markings Pattern : Part 32917 (Year 2017)
u9179p04 Sail  6 x 12 Triangular Modern with Lime and Bright Light Blue Wave and Yellow Sun Pattern : Part 1601 (Year 2022)
93383 : Alias to u9179p01
16292 : Alias to u9179p02
32917 : Alias to u9179p03
1601 : Alias to u9179p04
If there are better way, it will be highly appreciated.

2. Is the naming "Triangular Modern" appropriate? Should be more specific?

Having a special interest in Duplo, I made an inventory of relatively common parts for sale that are not yet on the LDraw part tracker. Naturally, I made a biased selection avoiding animals, figures, patterned parts, and special themes. Some of the parts in the list below are old and cannot be found in BI, some are newer, but still not in BI. Some are available as raw meshes in BI. Some can be created based on pictures. Some can be created by measuring the physical part, but some are so complex manual measurements would take a long time. Some could be scanned using a 3D scanner.

Which are available from the LEGO Builder instructions app (BI)?
