n-fcyls2 / n-fcyls Primitives

[Philippe Hurbain]

It seems to me that if you could create primitives for each cylindrical face (i.e., quads or triangles, but understood to represent a curved face for substitution purposes), you could allow for any use case. But you would have to append the name to include which sector of the cylinder it is, and whether it's the cyls or the cyls2 version.

Then you could also build new prims by combining these faces, and naming could reflect the range of sectors that's included. So like 1-8cyls2-3.dat would be 1/8th of a cylinder, made of sectors 2 and 3. Or something like that.

This would indeed be the ultimate flexibility but so far I failed to imagine a real life use case?
