hello!
I want to create a pattern of overlapping triangles on a surface.
I managed to use the triangle paneling tool in lunchbox to create a triangle grid on the surface and now i want to create my pattern based on this grid, so that each point in the grid is surrounded by a triangle that has 3 neighboring grid points as its vertices.
in the screenshot there is one such triangle but i want to make such a triangle for every grid point and then see them all at once.
this works with the knob parameter (creating the triangles one by one) but when i plug the “series” cable into the “list item” all i’m getting is a mess.
can someone please help me make a neat pattern?
the complete pattern should look just like a plain triangle grid and that wouldn’t be very helpful to show it.
the idea is to create a triangle around each grid node (based on a simple triangle grid) like the one green triangle in my screenshot. each grid node is surrounded by 6 neighbors and i want to draw a triangle based on 3 of them. in the end each grid node should be surrounded by a triangle that has other three grid nodes as its vertices. hope its clear now.
thank you!
im a noob in GH and im not very familiar with all the components that you used. so i cant read the script that you showed. if you could enable display>draw full names, that would be very helpful.
what i need in the end is a list of triangles (closed polylines) that are arranged according to the pattern that i described above (overlapping each other on the given surface)
