Hi there, I am trying to define the shape of lightning using vex in a wrangle sop A lightning path has forks that split from any given path, creating other paths with almost identical properties to the main path. To that end I created a path struct but I can't figure out how to get it to store its 'forks'. The same issue would arise if I instead stored the parents instead of the children. I am defining a path of lightning as so: struct lPath { lPoint source; lPoint sink; float energy; lPath forks[]; void setSource(lPoint newSource) { source=newSource; } void setSink(lPoint newSink) { sink=newSink; } void setEnergy(float newEnergy) { energy=newEnergy; } void create() { addprim(0,"polyline",source.num,sink.num); } } my issue is that I can't include a reference to itself due to infinite recursion, which is why in c++ I would use a reference lPath * forks[]; Is there any way to solve this using vex? Kind Regards George
