Hello. I want to distribute some trees over several surfaces, limited only by one shape (multiple splines):



Every green surface is a separated part. The yellow spline is the limit. At first, I select the spline as base for the forest generation and all works right, but as soon as I select the first surface all the trees are confined into a part of the spline. The surface selected at first doesn't affect the result. Any ideas? I've included the reduced scene showing the problem.

It seems there is a bug when using multiple surfaces. I suggest to attach all the surfaces in an unique mesh, while we fix the problem.

Attaching surfaces doesn't seems to fix the problem. I can't solve it in any combination, so I'll try to adapt the splines to the surface (it's a simple surface) and use only splines for the forest generation.

Good luck with bug hunting. If you need any other information about this scene, just say it.

Regards

Solved!!

Some surfaces have flipped faces and probably this didn't let the plugin to "find" any intersection with the surface to place the trees in Z axis. Now face normals are fixed and forest works fine.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
