marking question

  • undefined by undefined

    how to mark when a white line hit more then one other line. like between 8 and 9 clock. the white line has 3 vertexes (white/white white/green white/white)
    or does it count as only one or two vertex?

    Hmm. Tough call. But I would not mark any of those as vertices. 2-track vertices are hard to be sure about. But in general I wouldn't mark them unless they're near other vertices and/or "pointing back towards the center", as if a neutral particle suddenly split into two equal +- charged particles.
    Thanks!

    thank you very much for your answer, Mr. Haas.
    I'm happy that I can learn here more about this interesting project 😃

    Heya - this is really useful feedback for me too. It's not at all clear from the tutorial whether these two-particle things count as vertices or not... perhaps you could gives us a bigger pool of examples of what does and does not count (for newbies)?
