Add this script to a "Batch Script" editor (F10) and execute it with Script > Run.
The script loops through a spline node's ("Spline01") control points and adds bounded "Noise Field" daemons at the points' positions. Furthermore, the script checks if there is a "Noise_Daemons" groups in the scene. If not, a new group will be created:
| Code Block | ||

# Get the spline "Spline01" and its number of control points
# Get the scene's groups
spline = scene.getSpline("Spline01")
numCP = spline.getNumberOfControlPoints()
radius = 2.0
existingGroups = scene.getGroups()
# If the scene does not contain any groups create a new one and name it "Noise_Daemons"
if (len(existingGroups) == 0):
group = scene.addGroup()
group.setName("Noise_Daemons")
# If there are groups check if one of them is named "Noise_Daemons"...
else:
for entry in existingGroups:
if (entry.getName() == "Noise_Daemons"):
group = entry
# ...otherwise create a new group
else:
group = scene.addGroup()
group.setName("Noise_Daemons")
# Go through the spline's control points
for controlPoint in range(0, numCP):
cpPosition = spline.getControlPointPosition(controlPoint)
# Add a new daemon per control point
daemon = scene.addDaemon("Noise Field")
# Configure the daemon and make it bounded
# Place at the control point's position
# Add the daemon to the "Noise_Daemons" group
