11. Mech and Classic Move Interaction

 

11.1. If a classic move is placed before a Mech move, the classic move will determine the starting positions of the parts in the Mech move.

11.2. If a classic move is placed after a Mech move, the classic move will overwrite the Mech move.

11.2.1. If another Mech move invokes the solver after this, both Mech moves will be solved simultaneously, overwriting the classic move.

11.3. Therefore, classic moves are usually used before sets of Mech moves to establish starting positions or to build up rigid sub-assemblies. If classic moves are interspaced with Mech moves, care must be taken by the modeler that their intentions match their move list.
