I don't remember if this method fixes this or not, but you may want to look at the Javascript native way of creating and parsing JSON.

Hi,

Thanks for your insights into these methods.

I am using the following, great to learn new things! However after converting the data to a string - I then have to convert it back to floats to get the coordinates into the 3D Model actor. I have done this with another Javascript actor that takes the 'arguments[]' inputs in a nested array. But is there a way to package/un-package the floats without the second javascript intermediary?

});
    var arr = data; 
    var arrayToString = JSON.stringify(Object.assign({}, arr));  // convert array to string
    }
 return(arrayToString);
 }

Thank you I get it now!

 You will love working like this... you can save so much time by bundling parameters you are passing in and out of user actors, especially when you have numerous copies of a specific user actor.

Thank you I get it now!

Currently, you are sending floats in your JavaScript. You can actually pack those in your JavaScript actor to JSON and send out an array of points that you require with a certain index.

So let's say "torus:x1" (XYZ coordinate) with 10 points.. Using a JSON parser we can then grab the index "torus", fill in the number of points that we expect and it returns all the elements in the array.

Thanks for the suggestion. But I don’t really understand how JSON Parser is going to help as a work around in this context? Any specific pointers would be welcome.

I personally think that this is a general thing that Actor outputs are limited to 99..

@DusX @Woland Could you log this feature request :)

For now a workaround that you can use;

- Use JSON! This way you could actually send way more data through your 3D models. Using the JSON  actors that you can find in our Add-ons section.
