[surface handling] bug of surfaceCheck and surfaceFeatureExtract when working with OBJ file

wc34071209 · March 12, 2014, 10:07

Hello everybody,

I found a bug of surfaceCheck and surfaceFeatureExtract when they are working on OBJ files.

When you are using these two utilities, no spaces are allowed at the end of a line in OBJ file.

For example,

..........
g Zone_Wall_4
f 4 3 2 [space is not allowed here]
f 2 1 4 [space is not allowed here]
..................

when you type a space by mistake, then strange behaviour will happen. You can have a try by yourself.
