OK. What I'm saying is, the current shifter has too big value as it goes around 0(360) degree, so it makes up the intersection that should not be made. However, the shifter replacement is not the priority of the task now. First, after the intersection removal code is completed, it is a problem to think about. I'll do my work as soon as I get time. The exchange of opinions with you has been a great reference.
