I want to use these files for 3D printing. Can someone help me use distance instead of the number of spikes? Thanks!

the thing is, there are many parameters you can play with, but there are some constrains you need to keep in order to get that type of shape/pattern
for instance, looking at your definition, the number of initial divisions must always be an even number
this is with 30 (even):
this is with 31 (odd):
and the division should be based on a number that does not create any reminder
so dividing by a number of points instead of dividing by a given length (that could result in a not sharp division, and could also result in an odd number of points) looks like the method which carries the most good sense
what you can do is visualize the distance between “well distributed” points, which is the distance between consecutive crests on each layer, in such a way you have some play but the definition is still based on number of points:
they represent this distance here, which is different for each layer if the initial shape is not a cylinder:
