Snapping objects to curve

[yann19]

I am having some issues with 'snapping' geometries onto a curve.

The 'snapping' does seems to work, however, the spacing between objects are not what I am expecting.

I am guessing that I may have miss out on something..

I have attached some screenshots for better clarity:

(The curve is flat on the surface, but eventually I am planning to conform the curve such that it has 'depth' eg. on a terrain)

This is the result I got after running my code:

and this is what I am expecting to achieve:

My code is over here: https://pastebin.com/raw/xTz6ACJv

The spacing is determined by the "parameter range" of your NURBS curve, which is normally evenly distributed between 0-1. Try running "Rebuild" on your curve to reset that range.

i created this tool some time ago it may help i used some basic math to get values just look at the script .hope it helps

Just use mash curve node? or parametrize curve from 0-1 or length as suggested.  Only other trick is to make a curve an underworld node but doesn't really help with spacing more than rebuilding.
