making impossible dependency with mix mat

[kiwimage]

Hello Aoktar,

I'm reporting to you a way to crash c4dOctane (1.53.1) :

If you create a mix material,
then if you select the mix material and drag the mix material in itself, as one of the 2 materials to mix, it causes the crash of the plugin.

sure, it causes infinite loop

Yeah, I know it's something that can't be made possible, it has no sense.
I did that by mistake yesterday. (my materials where not named correctly).

I thought you could make it impossible to drag a mat in itself, maybe place a pop-up warning when something like this is attempted by the user.

yes, thanks. I may check it for this. But some extra controls can produce performance loss. Mix material system is not supporting by C4D. This gives lot of problems here. I hope to see native support in future.

I understand very well.
