How to redistribute points evenly over a curve

Question

I have some arbitrary curve in 3 dimensions made up of a list of XYZ cartesian points. The points are not evenly distributed (theres a time factor). How can I \'rebuild\'

Answer 1

Your "curve" is a bunch of line-segments that connect a bunch of points. Each line-segment has a length; the total length of your curve is the sum of these line-segments' lengths.

So calculate d = totalCurveLength / (numberOfPoints - 1), and split the curve into (numberOfPoints - 1) chunks of length d.
