Storing nodes on attributes modifier

Hey...

Im trying to store some nodes on an attribute modifier with the Weak Referencing method explained by Paul Neal http://www.paulneale.com/tutorials/Scripting/weakReferences/weakReferenc...

Here is what i have got:-

			local CTRL_IK_SwivelAngle = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"CTRL_IK_SwivelAngle")
			local CTRL_FK_UpperArm = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"CTRL_FK_UpperArm")
			local CTRL_FK_LowerArm = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"CTRL_FK_LowerArm")
			local CTRL_FK_Hand = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"CTRL_FK_Hand")
			local CTRL_IK_Hand = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"CTRL_IK_Hand")
			local CTRL_Clavicle = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"CTRL_Clavicle")
			local IK_SwivelAngle = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"IK_SwivelAngle")
			local FK_SwivelAngle = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"FK_SwivelAngle")
			local IK_UpperArm = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"IK_UpperArm")
			local IK_LowerArm = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"IK_LowerArm")
			local IK_SwivelAngle_Zero = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"IK_SwivelAngle_Zero")
 
			local NodeArray = #(CTRL_IK_SwivelAngle,CTRL_FK_UpperArm,CTRL_FK_LowerArm,CTRL_FK_Hand,CTRL_IK_Hand,
				CTRL_Clavicle,IK_SwivelAngle,FK_SwivelAngle,IK_UpperArm,IK_LowerArm,IK_SwivelAngle_Zero) as array
 
			for o in NodeArray do append Nodes(nodeTransformMonitor node:i forwardTransformChangeMsgs:false)

But I cant seem to add the nodes. The for cycle doesnt work. Has anybody got an answer??

I found out how to add nodes

I found out how to add nodes to a attribute modifier. When specifying the parameters you a node type:

parameters
(
CTRL_IK_SwivelAngle type:#node
)

then assign which node to add:

local CTRL_IK_SwivelAngle = getnodebyname (ChName+RL+"CTRL_IK_SwivelAngle")
