wich is nice actually :-) But I had 2 problems that make every thing just impossible to use : DIRECTION OF STEPS :
The motor can just reach one direction (for exemple clockwise) and when comes time to switch... not possible.
Details : When I put a value in HD.SM in V input, I put for exemple 100 with a slider so i have 100 steps and it works. Then I write 200, still working. and when I put a value that is less than the last higher value, for exemple 180 in my case the motor go endless to an higher amount, i mean 201,202,203...1000 etc... Dont undestand why :-/ SPEED : The speed is really really slow.
Details : The Firefly stepmotor component use the same library as heteroduino wich is Accelstepper.h but still going way faster. I tried lot of values in the S input (speed) but is not changing the speed that much, and sometimes its even changing the steps.
If there is another place where I have to post this, let me know also and I'll do it :-)
See you soon and hope some people are interested in the same problem ^^thanks :-)…
and visualizing data for ENVI-Met 4 software. ENVI-met is a cutting edge software used to analyse microclimate interactions in urban environment. Tens of different analysis types can be performed on the chosen building context. From Mean radiant temperature and local Wind speed to CO2 concentration and Pollutant dispersion in the air. To generate the building context for Ladybug ENVI-met components, Antonello used Gismo:
An example similar to results in upper screenshots has been been attached below. To run it, Gismo, Ladybug and Human plugins need to be installed. To perform the ENVI-met analysis, download ENVI-met 4 Basic for free, and install it. Steps in the .gh example file have been labelled from 1 to 11. They mostly consist of just setting a boolean toggle to True. An exception to this are steps 6 (set the folder path of your ENVI-met application install folder), and 8 (running the ENVI-met simulation). Step 8 has been explained in detail in the photo attached below (step8.jpg). Special thanks to Antonello for developing and guidance on ENVI-met application and components! Post questions below if you have any issues!…

nd me to kill him but give him my regards anyway) is still around in BirdAir Italy ... talk with him.
3. Hope that you understand that designing the "details" means some decent MCAD app + FEA + this + that. "Fusing" this with some abstract graphic editor like GH ... is ... er ... impossible (in real-life, you know, he he ). Generative Components on the other hand may qualify but requires a lot of time in order to fully master it (approx 2-4 years).
4. FormFinder ... well ... that's utterly Academic but on the other hand ... (good luck).

My realistic (low cost) advise:
use K1/2 (especially if you are after "parametric" exploitation(s)) ... and then diversify tasks: stuff for the structural department, stuff for whom claims that he can(?) design the "details" ... whilst be in a constant contact with the membrane provider (and in fact: the contractor for doing the real thing as well)

y to heaven (or hell) is full of pain,frustration and tears. In plain English: if you are not totally committed (and willing to pay the heavy price) ... well ... what about forgetting all that freaky stuff? (the best option, trust me)
Note: 99% of beginners dream to learn programing in order to make geometry. But the truth is that this is the least (and rather the most insignificant) that you can achieve especially when working in teams with lot's of CAD/MCAD apps (and verticals) in the practice of tomorrow (bad news: tomorrow is already yesterday).

simple, there are many symetries in 3 main planes. So I used arcs rotated 45° from the main planes and I generate a pentagon which was mirrored and rotated many times.
At the end there are 24 pentagons and 8 hexagons so 32 faces, 54 points/vertex and 84 edges.
It could generate some others tessalation styles

->Components Folder" folder.
In that case download it from food4rhino.
OR
2) There is, but it has been blocked.
In that case:Right click on the ghpython.gha file, and choose "Properties". If there is an "Unblock" button click on it, and then click on "OK". If there is no "Unblock" button, just click on "OK".
After completion of either of these two steps, close Rhino and Grasshopper, and run them again.
Let us know if worked.
On creation of buildings: Gismo will generate 3d buildings by extracting the height or number of stories data from .osm file.

file. A TSpline made thing in fact.
2. This atroci ... er ... hmm ... I mean unspeakable beauty uses an exo-skeletal load bearing structure hence is THAT big (BTW: Apparently nobody knows what thermal bridge is nor thermal expansion nor vapor condensation ... but these are "minor" details these holly blob days, he he).
3. 2 means that some nodes of that "grid" MUST "meet" floors in order to support them and (hopefully) withstand some seismic forces. BTW: A Richter scale 9 (for an hour) is all what this building actually needs (that's acid "humor").
4. The "smarter" way to do this is to spread "some" (i.e a lot) random points (Note: David's algo yields "evenly-spaced-points" within the limits of the possible) on the guide blob (a polysurface in fact).
5. Then ... you need some algo that tests proximity AND "adjusts" the Z in order to have some node points "co-planar" (Z) with the floors.
6. Then you triangulate all that stuff (the points, that is) using some decent Ball Pivot Algorithm (NOT Delauney) and you get a triangulated mesh that "engulfs" the guide blob. If you want some quads (as shown) this is also possible.
7. So you have edges ... i.e poly lines (per mesh face) and if you offset them ... you have "drilling" profiles that you must use against a second guide "thickened" blob for creating a continuously smooth exo-skeletal LBS (as shown). Of course Rhino (being a surface modeller) could require years to do this solid difference opp (or an eternity).
8. Rounding the "lips" of that LBS Brep is out of question with Rhino or GH (but it can been done very easily using other apps). Then you must "split" the Brep (in modules? in nodes + "rodes"? you tell me) in order to make it in real-life (what about forgetting all that?, he he).
9. Then, there's the glazing thingy that is made via quads meaning planarity. This is achievable with Kangaroo2 but is a bit tricky.
Moral: WHAT a gigantic pile of worms is this thread of yours...
more soon.

discussions during this period.
The major topics discussed for GH2 during this period will be:
Documentation/Help
GHA/Cluster/VB/C# App-Store
Localization (i.e. languages other than English)
Constraint Engine implementation
Improved VB/C#/Python development tools
Multi-threading the solver
Building a Mac version
If you feel something important was left out, please let us know here. Note that incremental improvements and bug-fixes are not worth discussion as we'll try and get around to them no matter what. Topics on this list have to fit the "Are we going to try and do X?" format.
