Kinematics

Hi. Can't get the kinematics work. What is the Date Node under Create Kinematics? It is some kind of data node and as far as I understand, it can be any label for example. If I set it to token.kinematics, it creates "Kinematic data" label to token and works fine. How can I create similar label to any object (like 3D shape)? If I set Create Kinematics->Data Node to "token.object.kinematics", I get an error that Label does not exist. If I create the label, it says "Invalid data node".kinematics.fsm

You should use this to create the label in Create Kinematics

token.object.labels.assert("kinematics")

and then this to Apply Kinematics:

token.object.labels["kinematics"]

The problem with the syntax token.object.kinematics is that it's trying to evaluate that label and use the result as a pointer to the kinematic node. So you could add another label "kinnode", type pointer, pointing to the "kinematics" label and then token.object.kinnode would work.
