since we have these great tools,
can we please space these appropriately so someone doesn’t smash my car with their door because the spots are too close together?

It looks like someone had a bad day.

Bruh… The script is all yours. You can change the grid layout as well as lot dimensions. I spent my time doing this, appreciate the work of others.

Or you could maybe get a smaller car?

Great work Johan! Thank you for sharing. The column grid is such a pain, I can relate… Especially when you want multiple levels with different boundaries. I did not achieve it back then. Maybe I will get back to this project one day.

Nice, Missing few items:
1- Accessible Parking (Standard, VAN Accessible and Ambulatory)
2- Compact Spaces
3- Carpool Only Spaces
4- EV Charging Spaces
5- Future EV (With Conduits Only)
6- Accessible EV Charging Spaces

Once you get the script ready, you will be able to montize it for Big Cash.

this was just a joke all… ease up.

fwiw, I drive a 71’ 240z that is smaller than a current gen mini cooper.

My comment was meant as a joke, too.

I guess that doesn’t matter if you’re flanked by two huge SUVs. :wink:
I’ve been to the US a couple of times and the parking spots generally seem quite big, compared to Europe. Nice car!

Because we have Costco ! this is how we park :slight_smile:

My dream car…

hahah don’t worry, I got it. :rofl:

Hi! I downloaded your script, and it’s impressive work! However, I’m finding it quite complicated to use. Could you please guide me on how to adjust it for my site? Thanks!

Hi Lial! I am glad someone liked it. Since I made the script I progressed with grasshopper a lot, and I would make it completely differently now. I do not remember how it works, and unfortunately, my head is very deep in work now. Recently saw this plug-in on food4rhino, and remembered the algorithm… Parking Solver | Food4Rhino
you might find it useful.

Hi! Thank you so much for your message! The Parking Solver sounds interesting; I’ll definitely check it out. I appreciate the recommendation!
