Does anyone know of a way to detect if an illegal self/cyclic reference is about to occur – im using script controllers and tried putting a try/catch in the script just as test but it seems to even overthrow that.
My assumptions are that cyclic-references are a base level check in max, similar to anim mode etc… Maybe general event or node callbacks?
Essentially is there anything that is called before a script_controller evaluation?
as i know the system doesn’t allow you to make loop dependency. sometimes it gives you a warning, sometimes it just doesn’t do what you ask.
but you always have an option before doing anything crazy – refs.dependencyLoopTest…
but sometimes there are tricks around… give us details, and we will try to fool the system
