We have a problem, again - Magnus Forsberg - 2023-09-09

Remember adapting 41750 to the shape of 61678 ?
It turns out that the problem is even bigger. The Porsche slope has to fit too.

   

   

The grey are adapted to fit under the trans slope, and the yellow are adapted to fit the trans yellow, but these 2 groups should have the same slope shape.

I think we shall check the raw parts from the BI app...

But wasn't the Porsche slope adapted to 61678?

Evert-Jan Boer is working on it. Who has some fresh BI data?

Get me a list of design-IDs I will get you the raw data

Attached the files, scaled and centered to match the ldraw parts; part 61678 is 11153 on BIA.

This sums-up the problem pretty well:

Affected are:

42022 - https://library.ldraw.org/parts/8218
93606 - https://library.ldraw.org/parts/13997
77182 - https://library.ldraw.org/parts/26315
61678 - https://library.ldraw.org/parts/11107
44126 - https://library.ldraw.org/parts/8672
41750 - https://library.ldraw.org/parts/8015

This involves a ton of patterned parts and sticker shortcuts. Looking at the sheer number of parts, I wonder if we should overhaul them all for the shape of a curve which has no impact on the building experience itself. Speaking for myself, I can live with that ;-)

I'm fine with you fixing the top curve of 46413 and 42022 (as it doesn't involve too man parts), but let's keep the underside untouched.
