Lusas_Toolkit: Bar/Panel Comparer #170

Open ChrisSelf2 opened 5 years ago

ChrisSelf2 commented 5 years ago

Custom Comparers to be created for Bars and Panels. Bars to use a midpoint comparer until the node distance comparer compares both start to end nodes and then end to start. This comparer would not be accurate for bars crossing with no intersection node however this would only typically be an issue in building cable bracing. Panels to use a midpoint comparer.

As mentioned in the Structural Adapters call, the Bar comparer could use the existing end node comparer, and then flip the bar and recompare. That would mean the intersection node is not an issue if there was some cable bracing or double bracing.
