algorithmic modeling for Rhino
Update:
Hoopsnake is now Open Source!
Check out the repo in Github!
Fork it and fix it :)
Hoopsnake is a component that allows feedback loops within Grasshopper.

HoopSnake, apart from alegendary creature, is simple component forGrasshopper. What it does in principle is to create a copy of the data it receives at it's input upon user request and store it locally. This duplicate is made available through a standard Grasshopper parameter output.
What turns this operation from mundane to actually promising is the fact that the input of the component includes some custom programming to escape Grasshopper's recursive loop avoidance check.
What this means in practice is that it is possible through the use of HoopSnake to send the output of a set of components back to it's input in a looping fashion. With the help of a little bit of Data Tree / Data List manipulation, this should open up some new possibilities for iterative process modeling.

Hi everyone,I have been trying to replicate an algorithm in 2D, used by nervous system to produce their hyphae lamps (see image below) using grasshopper without any additional scripting. I think this…Continue

Hello!First of all, thanks for the HOOPSNAKE component!I am trying to solve hydrostatic stability with Grasshooper (and hoopsnake).Actually I already did a script wich looks, more or less, the same…Continue

Hi!Would it be possible to get hoopsnake to automatically re-loop? I saw the old forums but could not get a definite answer..is it not possible? If not, what is the alternative?Thanks for the help!Continue
