Hello I'm trying to use a variable in the getNode() like below:
Is this impossible?
%newPath.addNode("%xPoint,%yPoint", 0);Is this impossible?

but I will definitely try your second suggestion tonight! Also I think the parenthesis' were in the documentation I read. It seemed to work with or without as long as I was using numbers. Thanks again for the suggestion and I'll get back to you with my findings. Hopefully this well help some other devs as well. :)

Hi Kevin, I tried the:%newPath.addNode(%xPoint,%yPoint, 0);

Okay, if its looking for a string then separating the variables with SPC will do the trick.

Hi Kevin, thank you for the tip. Used this:%newPath.addNode(%xPoint SPC %yPoint, 0);

%newPath.addNode(%xPoint,%yPoint, 0);
or this:
%newPath.addNode(%xPoint SPC %yPoint, 0);
Not sure which way since i'm not familiar with path nodes. However I know for a fact this: "%xPoint,%yPoint" is a literal string and torque does not see the variables.
