Synopsis: Creates a wire bundle for a given number of wires. ^[Geom]

Topics: Wiring

See Also: path_sweep(), path_sweep2d()

Usage:

wire_bundle(path, wires, [wirediam], [rounding], [wirenum=], [corner_steps=]);

Description:

Returns a 3D object representing a bundle of wires that follow a given path, with the corners rounded to a given radius. There are 17 base wire colors. If you have more than 17 wires, colors will get re-used.

Arguments:

By Position	What it does
`path`	The 3D path that the wire bundle should follow.
`wires`	The number of wires in the wire bundle.
`wirediam`	The diameter of each wire in the bundle.
`rounding`	The radius that the path corners will be rounded to.

By Name	What it does
`wirenum`	The first wire's offset into the color table.
`corner_steps`	The corner roundings in the path will be converted into this number of segments.

wire_bundle([[50,0,-50], [50,50,-50], [0,50,-50], [0,0,-50], [0,0,0]], rounding=10, wires=13);
