i think this is better solution than scripted_ctrl

masterObj = Box width:20 length:20 height:20 pos:[0,0,0] name:"Master001" wirecolor:red
masterObj[4][2].track = Bezier_Float()
for b in 1 to 10 do
(
slave = copy masterObj
slave.wirecolor = blue
slave.name = uniquename "Slave"
slave.pos = [0,(b*30),0]
slave[4][2].track = masterObj[4][2].track
)

Hey Barigazy... I can ask a question? Which is the number [4] and [2] in "masterObj[4][2].track = Bezier_Float()" ... ?

Create a box and type in listener $Box001[4] and $Box[4][2] and you'll
get the answer.

I could not understand your question ... would be something with wire parameters?
