Rotations of points with a graft data tree around multiple curves

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to understand how datatrees are working and I learned some tips but I'm stuck on that one so I'm calling for help.

My definition was working well until I wanted to apply it to multiple curves. Basically, I'm doing rotations of points in order to divide my circles by 6. With one curve, I juste have to graft but when I'm adding curves it more complicated. I found a way but I have to explode the tree (as you can see on the sreeenshot) and I can't use it with the rest of the definition. I tried other ways (see sreenshot) but it's not working and I don't know why. I attached the gh file if anyone could help.

Thanks!

PS. Sorry if my explanation isn't clear enough (it's why I attached my file), english is my second langage.

Hmm ...

From Lorenz chaos to David Rutten order eh?

Is this good or bad?

he he

PS: Pipe is VERY slow (and NEVER attempt to do that in a polyline > even slower [that's why the explode is used]). Disable the pipe if you want "real-time" response.

WHAT an idiot > test curves are not internalized and I've forgot the Rhino file.

And a challenge for you (are you brave enough?):

Using native components do what the thing in the black group does.

Really beautiful! I'll keep it in case of emergency. ;) But I'm not sur I can do this with native components...

Thank you again for your help Peter. I still don't know how to code but I found a easier way to do what I want thanks to you. :) And, in bonus, I attached the end result (for now).

Yes, you can do it ... but if you choose to cross the Rubicon is rather far easier (but only when viewed from the other side, he he).

I wonder if I should post here the notorious Alien Spine Cuppa def (only for the very brave) > name a Planet > Zorg, ZuBuRuBu (dual stuff for technical reasons), Pink, ZZDown, any > an appropriate cuppa is made ASAP.
