CIRPLANE
Circular plane generator for VS3D Version 1.00
Generates a clockwise circular polygon with the specified number of vertices.
For use "capping" a cylinder or as surface detail.
The resultant circular polygon is resting at ground zero (y=0) and has a
radius of 1 such that (-1 <= x <= 1) and (-1 <= z <= 1)
Use:
CLI> CIRPLANE filename

Number of points (3:200)= <n>
Enter the surface color = <n>
where: filename is typically "geo/name". You MUST type the path.
color is that used with the EGG and OCT programs.

Instructions embedded within the program:
Generates a circular polygon with the specified number of vertices for use
capping a cylinder or as surface detail. The resultant polygon is resting
at ground zero (y=0) and radius=1 such that -1 <= x <= 1 and -1 <= z <= 1.
Usage: CLI> CIRPLANE filename
where: filename is typically `geo/name'; you must type the full path name
You will be prompted for the number of points (vertices of the polygon) and
one color from among those recognized by `VideoScape 3D'® and its attendant
support programs (e.g. EGG, OCT).
Other geometry and utility programs are planned. Your ideas, suggestions
and bug reports are welcome; I can be contacted on the following systems:
