Center pivot

1.5.2, but might be earlier…
2010 SP1 x64

Seems that even with the correct bounding box, I can’t correctly center the pivot of a PRT Loader. Minor thing, but just had someone notice it today.

It has been like this since the beginning, and I don’t think it will change anytime soon.
The Center calculation code of Max is simply not able to cope with a particle object with no geometry.
In fact, if you create a Tape helper and try to center its pivot, it will go to a strange place, too.
So this is kind of a “Known Limitation” since we cannot affect the way the legacy tools of Max work with some of our objects.

Ah, I thought it was looking at the bounding box. Ok.
