BendAngle rest angle input

Daniel, 

I was using the bend angle component and noticed that the rest angle input is  slightly off. It seems as though the actual rest angle is half the input, eg, if I want the rest angle to be pi/3, I enter 2pi/3.

As always, thanks for the great work on Kangaroo.

The angle given is between one segment and the next, along the direction of the curve, measured from straight:

So an angle of 0 means the segments point in the same direction, while an angle of pi would mean it was completely folded back on itself.

I hope this makes it clear.
