It has singed shopfronts, melted cars and caused great gusts of wind to sweep pedestrians off their feet. Now the Walkie Talkie tower, the bulbous comedy villain of London’s skyline, has been bestowed with the Carbuncle Cup by Building Design (BD) magazine for the worst building of the year.
And it's not the only building with the same problem by that architect.
He should know: he has history with death-ray buildings, having designed a hotel in Las Vegas with a similar concave facade that scorched sunbathers’ hair and melted poolside loungers.

more complex geometries, nothing works anymore and the output is weird: every test point has the same value (97% DA) and it's impossible to visualize these values even if a text tag 3D is assigned to points (check Result.jpg)
The output that we get is a uniform mesh.
To check this output we also run an illuminance analysis using the same test surface, giving 300lux as high and low bound and some areas didn't reach the target value - which means that there must be some areas below that threshold.
Another thing: as you can see from Screenshot.jpg at one point we get the string saying *.dgp not found. Is that a problem?
Attached you can find the Grasshopper file.
Thank you all!

untime error:
Runtime error (PythonException): unable to add point to document Traceback: line 97, in AddPoint, "C:\Users\AKIDRIBM\AppData\Roaming\McNeel\Rhinoceros\6.0\Plug-ins\IronPython (814d908a-e25c-493d-97e9-ee3861957f49)\settings\lib\rhinoscript\geometry.py" line 136, in Point, "" line 47, in toGH, "" line 187, in RunScript, ""
Could anyone help me figure out what's causing it? The code for adding the point is below:
# Plots points/text dots def Point(self, pointSource): print pointSource, type(pointSource) pt = rs.AddPoint(float(pointSource.value.x.value), float(pointSource.value.y.value), float(pointSource.value.z.value)) return pt
pointSource is a custom object that stores information about the point. Its only relevance here is to obtain the point coordinates. I do not get this error all the time, so I'm having trouble figuring out what is exactly causing it.…
