I've an idea for a plugin that I don't know how to make:
The plugin would allow for an atom to be linked to two other atom's nodes.
When either of the linked atoms move, the atom which has the plugin has it's control position updated.
The idea is so that the atom can be placed at the midpoint between the two linked atom's nodes. However, I can see a benefit to have a 'max range' from the primary linked atom as an optional setting.
The plugin would also have an 'align on specific axis', so that either X,Y,Z axis can be chosen to line up with the two linked atoms.
Then it would have a 'scale axis by distance' option, so that the chosen axis will scale linearly with the distance between the two linked atoms as they move. e.g. If when first linked the atom with the plugin has an scaleX of 1, when the linked atoms move twice as far apart the scaleX would become 2.
Having a place for variable triggers on scaling would be a bonus, but I think it may require an option for 'maximum scale' for it to work.
