Tuple{MEDYAN.Context}

chem_newfilament!(c::Context; ftid=1, monomerstates, node_mids, nodepositions)

Return the filament id of a new filament.

Error if the filament isn’t initially over 2 monomers long.

Newly added filaments don’t have decimated_2mon sites, until after minimization.

Keyword Arguments

• ftid=1: filament type id.

• monomerstates: Collection of the MonomerState of the monomers in the new filament. In order from minus end to plus end.

  length(monomerstates)>1

• nodepositions: Collection of SVector{3,Float64}. The positions of the nodes, monomers are between nodes.

• node_mids: Collection of Integer. The monomer ids at (slightly plus side of) the nodepositions

                                 ^ A nodeposition is indicated by the line.

  The monomer id with parenthesis (M) will in node_mids

  length(node_mids) == length(nodepositions) - 1

• endloadforces=(0.0=>0.0): end load forces, usually don’t use this, because load forces will automatically get updated at the next minimization.
