manim: Problems with cached data in a scene with .add_updater [SCENE CACHING]
class UpdaterExample(Scene):
def construct(self):
path = VMobject()
dot = Dot()
path.set_points_as_corners([dot.get_center(), dot.get_center()])
def update_path(path):
previus_path = path.copy()
previus_path.add_points_as_corners([dot.get_center()])
path.become(previus_path)
path.add_updater(update_path)
self.add(path, dot)
self.play(Rotating(dot, radians=PI, about_point=RIGHT, run_time=2))
self.play(dot.shift, UP)
self.play(dot.shift, LEFT)
When I run this script the first time, I get this:
However, when I run it again, without any changes, I get this:
and the following output in the terminal:

My hunch is that the scene cacher only saw the positions of the Dot before and after, not taking into consideration the path that it travelled.
