Hi ! I am trying to do something very similar to this,[ Water runoff script – Example 8.6 | Generative Landscapes ] [Unbenannt] but on a network of curves rather than a surface. Basically I am testing out different patterns on where the water would go but instead of just letting it go anywhere i am…

When I closed your previous file, Rhino/Grasshopper froze and then crashed. Not good! Looking at your updated file, I see HUGE numbers of points and data tree paths (many empty) in the outputs, so it’s very likely that there are data tree mixups involved. Looking… Later: How does this look? I f…

You didn’t internalize your points? [missing] [image] Fluid simulation kangaroo Grasshopper simpledrainage.gh (60.9 KB) [drainage] [image]

oh sorry! didn’t realize. here’s the file again. flow tests.gh (55.3 KB)

thank you! this is exactly what i wanted :slight_smile:

Caveat: As written, the radius of the sphere determines the incremental distance. If the radius is too large, there is a danger that it could intersect an adjacent path instead of a connected one, causing an unwanted jump between routes.
