    @terrycavanagh does that work as a for-each on iterators/lists? (I rarely use normal for loops)
  25. …in reply to @terrycavanagh
    @terrycavanagh right, unifying for loops as only happening on iterators, then giving a quick range construct. More than fine with me!

  32. …in reply to @Poxican
    @Poxican ah, I get you now! trailRenderer is also a Renderer, so renderer could refer to either it or the MeshRenderer.
