Hi guys, im relatively new to grasshopper. Ive attached a couple of files
-
the script im currently working with
-
a sketch of the basic principles - seeds will disperse randomly outwards (colours are just for clarity)
-
My optimal map (turned to black and white in image sampler- dark areas= more optimal for growth
-
error- original points are just being uplicated within- its not dispersing the last created points (not spreading out)
-
Original point (original parent plant)
-
next points (original parent plant’s children)
-
next points (original parent plant’s children’s children)
Im trying to simulate seed dispersal by spreading points out as a loop on rhino and grasshopper.
Essentially, I have a 2d map image on rhino (img 3) where dark areas are optimal for the plants growth and light areas are not (eg, points will be dispersed further and more frequently in the darker areas).
To achieve this, each point has been given a value from image sampler depending on where they sit (0- being not optimal-1 being most optimal- see screenshot 3)- I have culled points sitting in white areas as these wont grow at all so they arent displayed
Im trying to use anemone to disperse these points outwards as a simulation. At the moment, its just repeating the dispersal of points inwards causing it to crash, not spreading outwards to generation 3 etc
Not sure if there’s a basic principle im getting wrong with anemone but any help would be greatly appreciated -ideally need this working for monday 
comment if you need additional information- or know any tutorials which may be helpful-
THANK YOU
