Polar Array - 4.0
WELCOME
Polar Array's aren't natively in blender. Instead of going through the hassle of adding in multiple objects and doing the math to figure out what distance they need to be, I wrote a simple plugin that automatically handles all of it!
USAGE
Firstly start off with a planet, and a sun. The planet is what will be cloned around the center.
After you have both your planet and sun, go to the physics tab of the sun.
Here you will see the polar array modifier.
since you can't natively add a modifier in python, I had to place it here.
CREATING A POLAR ARRAY
in the polar array tab, you'll see a menu that goes as follows.
Sun: Object, Selects the object to be the sun
Planet: Object, Selects the object to be the planets.
Number Of Planets: Slider, Selects the number of planets to use. (I believe this to be infinite, however computing power is needed)
Up Axis: Drop Down, Selects the up axis of the track to modifiers.
Track Axis: Drop Down, Selects the tracking axis to use for the modifiers.
Polar Array: Button, Shows a preview of the settings.
Apply Polar Array: Button, Applies all of the track to modifiers of the planets.
And This addon allows you to make Polar Array's in Blender like AutoCAD
