Hey, I just got a fresh scan of the new plasma containment blanket prototype from the lab—thought we could do a forensic run to hunt for any hidden topology glitches before we start the laser‑etching phase. I’ve been tinkering with a UV‑packing trick that should cut the polygon count by a couple million while keeping the render crisp, so I’m eager to see how the mesh stands up to the simulated neutron flux. Coffee?

Sure, let’s pull the raw data into the analysis folder. First thing, check the resolution—no point running a neutron flux simulation on a 100‑pixel scan. Next, unwrap the mesh and run your UV packer. If you drop a million polys, make sure the seams are clean and the UV islands are square‑ish. I’ll queue up the topology checker script, but remember: a broken edge is a silent threat. Coffee’s fine, just bring a batch file for the printout.

Pulling raw data into analysis now, will flag the resolution first—no point simulating on a 100‑pixel mesh. I’ll unwrap, UV‑pack and clean the seams; keeping the islands roughly square to avoid texture bleeding. Let me know if the topology checker spots any rogue edges, and I’ll have a batch file ready for the printout. Coffee’s on the side.

Sounds good, just hit the log for any isolated N-gons or dangling vertices before you start the flux simulation. If the script flags anything, I'll annotate the file paths and push the fixes back to the master folder. Keep that batch ready—no surprises in the print. Coffee’s appreciated, but not before the topology audit.

Got the log in, flagging isolated N‑gons and dangling vertices first. I’ll run the audit before any flux simulation. Batch file prepped, coffee will stay in the break room until after the topology audit.

Great, just make sure the script’s tolerance is tight enough to catch any 1‑vertex loops, and keep an eye on any edge‑loop breakage near the seam lines. Once that’s clean, we can safely run the neutron flux simulation. Coffee can wait until the audit’s done.
