newton.utils.create_straight_cable_points_and_quaternions#

newton.utils.create_straight_cable_points_and_quaternions(start, direction, length, num_segments, *, twist_total=0.0)[source]#

Generate straight cable points and matching per-segment quaternions.

This is a convenience wrapper around: - create_straight_cable_points() - create_parallel_transport_cable_quaternions()
