Hello,
How do I avoid self intersections with TraceGeometry?
The SDK states that I should pass the current hit as last_hit. I dont understand what that means, how do I find the current hit?
Thanks

The docs says to pass 0 to use the current hit (lhit) or pass the global index you want to ignore (to avoid self-intersection) or NOTOK to check all polygons.
If you look at VolumeData (BaseVolumeData) then 'lhit' is the global polygon index that was hit, 0 indicates no hit. If you need to get from the global to local index then use the ID_to_Obj() function in VolumeData.
