Hey Peter ! Thank's a lot ! You're totally right ! I Will try something like this. I'm doing some fast R&D, moving from one kind of "test" to another (now I'm on something else). Playing a lot wit PolygonIslandID. Slow to generate, but super handy ! I might come back to you again with questions ;)
Thank you again !
