i think this is better solution than scripted_ctrl

masterObj = Box width:20 length:20 height:20 pos:[0,0,0] name:"Master001" wirecolor:red
masterObj[4][2].track = Bezier_Float()
for b in 1 to 10 do
(
	slave = copy masterObj
	slave.wirecolor = blue
	slave.name = uniquename "Slave"
	slave.pos = [0,(b*30),0]
	slave[4][2].track = masterObj[4][2].track
)
