Hi everyone,
I’m new to the forum, but I will try my best to follow the guidelines for new questions as posted by David Rutten and provide you with clear information.
My question is as follows;
I’m trying to create a set of reciprocal towers to connected to a double curved roof
For this purpose, I’m using octagons to create catenary lines to create two loft surfaces and cutting surfaces. At the intersection of these I create offsetted catenary lines which I then divide and connect in a spiraling fashion using relative item, I then interpolate between the control points to get the curved lines I desire.
So far, so good the only persistent problem that me and my colleagues haven’t been able to tackle is that the order of the curves, as visualised by making a Point List from the startpoints, is irregular.
15 out of the 16 towers will list as 0,2,3,4,5,6,7,1. Which isn’t perfect but workable.
It’s the tower of branch {1;0} that;s giving problems, as it is listed as 1,3,4,5,0,6,7,2.
My primary question: How can I deduce the error and prevent this difference in the order of the curves from happening in the first place.
If that’s not feasible, my backup question would be: How might I go about changing the order of the indices without changing the physical location of the curves.
Thank you very much in advance!
