How do I apply the same Vray Scatter on another object without having to apply a new one and redo the whole settings.
And another issue, i've applied vray scatter on a object and now i'm adding (mesh combine) another object, vray scatter doesn't update, I have to reapply another vray scatter on the new combined object and redo the settings.

any scene will do, just adding vray scatter on a plane, than mesh combine another plane to the first one, vray scatter doesn't update any deleting history will remove it

It's still not working, i still can't combine another object to the one already having scatter on it, it doesn't update to the new object, plus when you delete history vray scatter is removed from the combined object.

Nop, not working but i'm not sure if you completely understood what i meant, maybe i didn't explain it well.
Its' simple actually.
1-Create a plane and add vray scatter to it.
2-Create another plane but dont add vray scatter.
3-Now i want to mesh combine the first plane(with vray scatter) to the second plane.

Now 2 Issues:
1-vray scatter doesn't update to the new plane.
2-if you delete history vray scatter disappear.

you can manually connect the vrayscatter node to the new mesh. I think via teh outmesh, inmesh attributes - with a bit of mel im sure you could automate this with a script.
