Curved pressure pipes

Hello,

 

I'm having an issue with curved pressure pipes and IFC export. I have created 4 networks from objects, the exact same way. I two centerlines, one for each set, and use a small offset from centerline to create my networks.

 

I have to curve some segments of my pipe run, due to restrictive parts and such. All pipes look identical in object viewer and iso view.

 

My issue is that when I export to IFC, 3/4 networks show some form of curve, but the last is just a straight pipe (see attached image).

 

Does anyone have any experience with what causes this? What makes the pipe "curved" in IFC and what makes it ignore the curve?

This was solved by setting the facetdev system variable to a smaller number (used 0.001, standard is 10)
