[Therion] How to calculate the volume of a cave

[Benedikt Hallinger]

It would be awesome if the compiler could derive this fron the loch model and write it to the statistics block (the one where also loop closure info and total west/east and north/south dimwnsions are returned) when compiling this, as the neccessary data should be already present?

The process looks very complex to me, and besides - Loch does not run on my computers, so there is no way for me to generate an export.
