Research and Development: Floor Test 4

Having written the script which gave a certain look for each row, I now had the problem that the next row starts too late, and the same for every row ahead of it. So now I modified the script to perform a phase shift on the entire next row, bringing its starting wave back some time . This way I can bring back its key frames enough so thats soon as the first row goes off, the next row does the exact animation but only a fraction of a second afterwards. Now perform this On every subsequent row procedurally. You now have the effect of a wave going across your floor. Here is the first successful test in this regard from two separate angles.













Notice now that I now have complete control of the off set in between the rows. This increases the re-usability of my script, and allows the user to create a wide variety of effects.
