Description

hi everyone

im trying to figure out how to work with the reaction manager through maxscript.
i must say i cant find allmost any information on the topic and what i did find was short and confusing , the help file didn't "help" me at all , as i am new to scripting and couldn't really grasp what was in there and there are no real examples , dose anyone know a good tutorial on the topic ?
or a link to a file , or really anything to point me in the right direction ?
a tutorial from one of you would be amazing.
thanks allot.

The reactionMgr interface only lets you open the reaction manager's dialog.
If you want to set/adjust parameters through scripting you assign reaction controllers (called 'reactor' controllers in mxs) to the slaves and access their parameters.
There's a whole page of examples in the reference.
