DESCRIPTION
g-tankill
converts the specified
object(s)
from a BRL-CAD
database.g
file to the
TANKILL
format.
The
tankill_file
represents each object as a series
of triangular faces.
This converter creates a region for each object ident number by unioning
together all the objects with the same ident number. The
-x
option specifies a LIBRT debug flag, and the
-X
option specifies an NMG-Library debug flag. The
-a
,
-r
, and
-n
options specify tessellation tolerances. The
-o
option specifies the name of the file to receive the output
(stdout is the default). The
-i
option specifies that ident numbers should be assigned sequentially
rather than using the idents assigned in the BRL-CAD model. (A list
of the regions and the assigned idents are written to
idents_file
along with the BRL-CAD ident number, aircode, gift material code,
los, and any material name assigned through the
mater
command.) The
-s
option specifies that the provided surroundings code should be used for
all the components in the
TANKILL
output model. (The default is to use a surroundings code of 1000.)
The
-v
option is for verbose mode.
The
-P
option is to enable core dumps (dummy argument is for
number of processors, currently disabled).
