Hmmm.

Just reviewed my post #30 above and can't help the feeling thst Poser likes to "roll dices" on how to add new morphs to a figure.
Quite annoying.

However *IF* we can find out how Poser's hidden, not documented and probably "top secret" algorithm works, we could be able to develop a script that works consistently no matter what figure is.

Wishful thinking...

HAHA!!!

I finally found the reason for the odd behaviour in the chest.
It's the magnet deformers in the chest who simulate the original V4 breast movement magnets!

For some strange reasons Poser insists to add any new targetGeom morphs not on top of the morph list as it usually does, but first goes looking if there are any "deformerPropChan" channels present.
If there are, Poser adds all new targetGeom channels *after* those.
So the solution was to put the deformerPropChans right on top of the chest's channel list. Now everything works as supposed.

After much fiddling around without a result I've found out that the channel order can't be changed with a script.

So in upcoming SR1 you'll get a new base figure .cr2 with the fixed channel order.
A slight drawback is that you can't fix the issue in S-16 characters created previously. However, as this only concerns a negligible detail like the Morph Trap which isn't critical for the figure's function, I think that this is something that we can live with.

The rewritten "Repair Morph Trap" script will come with SR1 too.

If you want to try:

Here's the current version, and it should do what it's expected - delete the old Morph Trap Channels and recreate them at the top of the morph list, then rewriting the dependencies.

Remember this:
This script will repair the "Morph Trap" of SASHA-16 in case you've injected some morphs, or created new ones
and now the two dials "-Injection Checker; MUST be 666 :" and "Default Channel" are no longer on top
of the morph list where they belong in order to work properly.
It deletes (or renames) the old dials and then recreates them on top of the morph list again.

ATTENTION:

Poser has it's own mind about adding new valueParms and targetGeoms which may lead to unexpected issues!
With the method used here the new dials will be added on top of the list EXCEPT when there are "deformerPropChan"s somewhere in the channels list: In this case the new parameters will be added BELOW the "deformerPropChan"s, regardless of where they are in the channels list. [frown]

So if in doubt, switch the parameters list to "Display in calculation order" and tick "Show hidden parameters".
Now check manually that the two Morph Trap parameters are right on top of the list.

Still a tad of error-prone because documentation of how Poser adds norph channels doesn't exist.
But it's the best I can up with by now, and it should work ok.
