There is a very interesting plugin for Moray that Steffen Hartleib made in
2000, called Duplicate2.dll. It has, amongst others, a basic trace()
function.
I have used it once in a while over the years, and recently thought it
needed a small tutorial. So I tested different things and wrote them down. I
tried contacting Steffen about the plugin, but his e-mail is no longer
valid. So, for distribution of the plugin to those who want to try it, you
can ask me and I shall post it here.

posted your tutorial.

You are welcome!
To tell the truth, I totally forgot about that function until a couple of
days ago when I wanted to use the plugin for something else. I then realized
that it did a trace output when using a height_field as container. And that
ptompted me to write the tutorial because I kind of had to reinvent the
wheel again.

I remember the name but your screenshot did not look familiar. I must try to
find my old Moray files on my last HD which crashed about a year ago.

The Readme, originally attached to the plugin:
Dublicate2 v0.4,
Dublicate2 is a Moray v3.2/v3.3 Plugin, giving a new duplication dialog.
The duplication of the objects is randomised, with adjustable values for
the area, the sizing and the rotation The objects will be created randomly
with a given seed value and added to a csg group. In V0.2 there's a new
option to place the duplicated objects. You can use certain objects as
boundaries for the randomised creation. Supported boundary objects in v0.3
are:
Cube
cylinder
torus
sphere
disc
Heightfield (Only TRUE-COLOR TGA files)
cone
when using a heightfield, the objects will be created on the surface of
this heightfield, using the appropriate z-value
History:
v0.1 first version of the plugin using OWL
v0.2 new version without OWL
* Cancel Button inserted
* Icon added to Plugin List
* scaling bug fixed
* possibility to use certain objects as boundaries added
* smaller bugs fixed
v0.3 add new functions
* uniform scaling
* create reference object
* add original object to CSG
* distance controll
* new boundary object - Cone
v0.4 bugs fixed
* new scaling function
If you should have any problems, ideas, questions or critics, feel free to
contact me
