Not creating scoop

I can't get the scoop feature working. I'm working on a clone of most recent main branch.

How are you calling the function?

[jottr]

What do you mean by, how do I call it? I render the gridfinity-rebuilt-bins.scad from within openSCAD. Here's the full patch:

[kennetek]

Change height_internal back to zero. Only need to mess with that parameter if you want solid bins.

[jottr]

It's exactly the opposite for me:

height_internal=0:

height_internal=1:

[kennetek]

Change both divx and divy to 1. I don't know why its zero by default.

[jottr]

Ok, that fixed it.

[jottr]

@kennetek may I suggest to set the defaults of divx and divy to 1?
