ide into 80 branches, and 80 outputs of explode and 80 dispatches - its my nightmare. Is there any way to do this with parametric Number of brunches? …

Obviously you can skip the creation part and instruct GH to deal with instance definitions already listed in the Block Manager (say: find the block named "cell666_B3" blah, blah) ... but that means that you can only use them (meaning a rather "limited" parametric approach) and not make them from scratch (meaning a true parametric approach).
But I guess that you've tried the block way in the Rhino environment already. That said I use rather solely this approach in GH and yields quite manageable object collections - I would say "real-time" response (up to 20K instances) but I use dedicated Xeon E5 1630 V3 workstations (with NVida Quadros K4200 and up for the graphic response part of the equation) so the "performance" is rather a subjective thing.
Modifications:
easily doable with GH (on instance definitions at placing time: since you need only to scale them and not vary their topology).
Anyway post a portion of the R file.…
FORE MeshMachine (rather better) or after
BTW: For a mesh with 7M points ... well... you'll need some proper CPU to deal in a reasonable amount of time (what about a Xeon E5 1630 V3?).
Alternatively find a friend who knows very well Modo ... and see first hand what the US Movie Industry is all about.…
ted in how to solve the problem keeping the structure of the grasshopper document as is in my example:
In reality, the project I'm working on is actually much more complex. In a nutshell, I have a bunch of parameters that determine the shape of a building (like the number of floors, dimensional ratios etc...). Then I perform a series of analysis on that model using some plugins, such as a solar radiation analysis with LadyBug etc. What I need is to create a spreadsheet in which I associate those initial parameters with the output of the analysis. A spreadsheet that would enumerate all the possible cases: for 4 floors, the solar radiation is 100, for 5 floors, the solar radiation is 97, for 6 floors is... I need a method to automate this process so I don't have to move the sliders and record the output manually, as each iteration requires quite some time to be computed and needs more than one slider to be adjusted.I've decided to bring up a way simpler example than the whole thing, in which I replaced all the complex geometry generation/analysis components with a simple multiplication component to avoid cluttering the thread with irrelevant logic...…
rom two surface offsets. I did a merge list to create a pattern from an wavy surface. I obtained several surfaces made of two toggle boolean.

How can i simplify those surfaces (made of two surfaces)?

Also, how can i link the two offset surfaces in a closed volume?
Thank you guys!
Best,
