  • Sorting different objects in cloner differently ever frame, with no repetition

    Posted by Jeng Oh on August 24, 2021 at 2:31 am

    Hey, so here’s my situation:

    I have a set of 20 objects

    I have a cloner with 4 clones, with all the 20 objects as children (so it shows only 4 at a time)

    What I need is to get the cloner to show every combination of the 20 obejcts every set number of frames

    Thing is, they can’t repeat.

    I know it’s like 100k combinations or so, I might not export all of them but I still need to be able to have every frame show a unique different combination, for wtvr amount of frames it takes till every combination runs out.

    I know it’ll probably take some xpresso or python, I just don’t know how to approach it.

    I tried using the “Random” sorting option and changing the seed every frame, but I can already tell some combinations are repeated here and there.

    Thanks!
