Multiple Intersection Points

When the shell profile is split by a plane or another objects, it may of course result in many intersection points. However, the Hull XML generator can only handle one intersection point at a time. For that purpose it is possible to give an approximate point. In case of multiple intersections the Hull XML generator will select the one that is closest to the approximated point.

If no approximated point is given in the input, then the first intersection point along the trace line of the shell profile will be selected.

The details about how to give approximated points is explained in the next section, Split Point Details
