dy for a wall where we want to analyze its openings. I made a parametric wall that then get's analyzed with different geometries and the idea was just to leave it there for the weekend as it morphed through different iterations. However, after successfully running a test simulation on my pc (just with one iteration), it fails to run the same test on the workplace computer. Any help would be greatly apprecated! Here is the following error:
Sorry! But the number of available CPUs on your machine is 4.
Honeybee set the number of CPUs to 4.
Grid-based Radiance simulation
The component is checking ad, as, ar and aa values. This is just to make sure that the results are accurate enough.
Good to go!

" (idiomatic) and easy way of doing things.So here come some basic questions:
Is there a way to create custom components by grouping an existing sub-network together? I'm looking for a way to re-use parts of a program (something similar to subroutines), and to make the network look less cluttered. I found that it is possible to group components (ctrl-g), but this still displays them as separate blocks (too much clutter), and provides no way to re-use a sub-network in such a way that if it is modified in one place, all it's instances (all the places where it is re-used) also get modified.
Is there a component that does nothing, just passes a signal through? Suppose I need to connect block A to blocks B1, B2, B3 (all three get the same input). Then I change my mind, and I decide to connect block C to these three, not A. In this case it will be necessary to change three connections, not just one. I'm looking for an easy way to do this by a single rewiring, not three. (This came up in a practical situation).
Finally, a related question: is there a component that acts as a switch, so I can choose which signal it passes through out of a possible set of choices? For example, suppose that a set of objects can be coloured based on a number of different properties (size, positions, rotation, etc.) I'm looking for a way to switch between these very easily, without the need to do much rewiring.
Thank you in advance for any replies / useful comments, even general ones on how to easily structure a large Grasshopper program/network.…
understanding of the graphical algorithm editor, and then dive into more complex parametric models. We’ll also learn tricks to keep our project responsive and enjoyable to use.

An understanding of the Grasshopper interface and the visual programming theory
Base parameters, large numbers of points and vectors, and small geometrical instances
Data flow
Troubleshooting definition problems and solutions
Know the main component types
Be able to join, and manage connections and trees
Expressions for both calculation and boolean creation
Understand Data Matching and casting
Managing long lists of objects within Grasshopper
Have an understanding of the functioning of Grasshopper components

here are my questions.
1. The difference in general attractor transition is that, i only want the points are moving toward x axis, so if i just have ONE curve to distinguish, which is'nt the problem to find points location are in the right of left side of curve, but if i have TWO or THREE curves need to be distinguished, that is totally confused to me!
2. The points near curve which moved too big, how can i make it more equal?
3. I hope all the points can stay in the square boundary.
If anyone can give me some hint, i would be very appreciate with that.
thanks a lot!!
Shaun
