Sunflow is a bit old, but could do the trick for packshots.

Of course, the best would be to get some connexion / partnership with Corona Render

I tried both “All Objects” and a list of object with the “When moved” puzzle to try and keep the renderer enabled while camera or anything else is moving and disabeling when no more objects are moving, however the last object in the list or All objects seems to “override” the other objects. I guess the “when moved” puzzle was built for use with objects one by one. (See attached screenshot, where Camera object seems to “override” movement in the other objects, the renderer is only anabled when Camera is moving)

So my guess is that if you putt a list it will run the entire puzzle (start:do, when moving: do and stop:do) on one object at a time, and not doing an evaluation for each and then running the three “slots”?

Haven’t thought about how this might be inconsistent with how lists are used in other puzzles, but I was sort of expecting “start: do” to run when one ore more objects in the list start moving after all having been still, “while moving: do” being run while any number of objects in the list is moving, and “stop:do” being run only when the last object that is still moving become still again.

I was thinking of doing this logic in a different way anyway, but if the way it is now is not the intended behaviour I will consider reverting to this method once fixed.

So going on my prevoius assumption that the “loop” is run for every object in the list I still get the same problem as before, the last object “override” the rest of them somehow. I tried with the setup in attached screenshot, there I will enable the renderer once 1 or more objects ar moving and only disabeling when the the number of moving/animating objects reach 0 again. (not visible in my screenshot, but i set the animationCount variable to 0 at the top of the current puzzles tab)

I could sett up puzzles for testing my assumptions here, but I think my assumptions here are wrong, or something about the inner workings of the when moved puzzle combined with lists are not quite right.

If I could get a quick explanation of how the logic flows inside the when moved puzzles using lists that would be great!?

EDIT: sorry about the rant but I’m just editing as I make assumptions, is it like a switch statement of sorts ?, so once one object is found to trigger a condition it will use that, in effect for my setup just using the first object it evaluates ? That sort of would be consistent with my findings so far.

Sweet, thanks Yuri.

That was quick :) works for the animationCount setup, the simpler setup still does not work as I was initialy thinking, but putting enable rendering also in “while moving” now makes it behave fine. I think I have been thinking about the list iteration wrong, but testing this out, and with the bug fixed it makes more sense.

Thanks Yuri
