Update Scene to save loading time

[rappet]

Hi PAul,

Maybe discussed before or not... and probably impossible, but never asked never know

I was wondering if it might be possible to have a future/feature with only updating few elements (changed elements in ArchiCAD), instead of having the total scene loaded completely.
I.e. I have a big scene loaded (14.000 elements to process) in the plugin... now I need only to change just a few elements in ArchiCAD... if then I would be able to select the changed parts and update the Loaded scene that would save a lot of time.

greetz,

All geometry is stored in a single Octane Mesh node - so the entire scene needs to be reloaded in order to update any geometry. I had a version of the plugin which loaded every geometry item as a separate Octane Mesh node, however 10,000+ Mesh nodes took a very long time to voxellise, so it was not a viable option.

OK... thought so. and seems logical (I have to practice myself more in checking having a good scene before loading)
Thanx for explaining
