"Yah...I've adapted the brilliant definition from Michael Pryor http://formularch.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/gh-point-attract-repel.html so I don't need to use a graphmapper anymore. But I'm still not able to use multiple attractor points…"

Scaling voronoi with graphmapper

There are two definitions. One for multiple attractor points with graphmapper, and another for scaling voronoi cells. I have been trying to combine the 2 in order the scale the voronoi cells with multiple attractor points as well as being able to control the intensity of every attractor point. I'm failing badly. Anyone able to help? Thanks.…See More

"Dang...that's a pity. Thanks for letting me know RWNB. Robert, thanks for the help. You will likely get questions from me again, sorry to be a bother. An example showing movement through streets would be incredibly helpful. Hope to see it soon. "

"the biggest thing is not so much with the setup but the bounding volume, you looking for the movement of a swarm but you constrain it nto a very narrow tube and then ask it to make a 90 degree turn. i…"

"i think, the vb script is no more compatible with the new grasshopper version."

"The project I'm working on is a long narrow street, which is why I need the swarm to be constrained to the brep. The second image you have is how I want the swarm to behave, unfortunately, the swarm reacts very differently when there's a…"

"i had a look and there are a few issues. you have a narrow tube that you want them to go down but you put a seek point right at the start, so naturally they will find that first and stay seeking that point, they have no reason to…"

"They are attached. I've set a few attractor and repulsion points. But the swarm is not able to move past the first attractor point."

"it can be a few things, like the seek radius is too small or the force is not enough. can you post the file, or a more complete screen shot"

"Thanks for the quick response Robert. It is actually flattened. Just didn't show up in that image. I can't seem to get the swarm to move all along the bounding box."
