    Can it create functional mechanisms using LEGO Technic parts?

      It seems to be able to! <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;anteloc&#x2F;ldraw-nova&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;examples&#x2F;mechanism-atlas&#x2F;README.md" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;anteloc&#x2F;ldraw-nova&#x2F;blob&#x2F;master&#x2F;examples&#x2F;m...

        Thats pretty cool, i wonder how far it goes with mechanisms where the parts actually have to move correctly, rather than just being assembled correctly

        That&#x27;s unfinished work, however... didn&#x27;t get good results with Technic models yet, except for very specific cases, like e.g. the Atlas Crane.

      That&#x27;s still WIP, started already with Technic assemblies, not mechanisms yet, in order to first produce the required scaffolding to attach things like e.g. cogs, transmissions, etc. to them.

      Getting mechanisms to work is one of my goals, though =)
