Hi Sanford, << You see, I want to animate a guy walking up spiral stairs. So now I have a path for him to follow. >> You are refining the right skill set for the near future. Creating and modifying multiple paths is key! I'm very thankful for the shaper/lofter and now Tempo to aid in this. Consider the number of seperate paths that hands, feet etc take in a simple backward flip off a diving board including the path of the board as it interacts with the human and then how it flutters inbetween jumps…. If all of these paths influenced the resultant animation of a hierachical tree then indeed this is a skill that must be mastered.. Keep it up..
