I have a terrain that is animated with a pfSequence
(well, a ``number of terrains'' under a pfSeq Node). Each terrain
is slightly different colour. In order to place objects on that
terrain, I want to intersect with it, but during "init" no
terrain-child is active yet (I believe) and so my intersections fail.
I see at the top of page 149 of the performer programming guide
a mention of this.

Is there a way to intersect with the first child of the
terrain sequence, even if it is not active?

regards,
ben.
