achieving some preliminarily/conceptual Academic solution that "may" qualify as "realistic". I have several defs that do similar stuff ... but this is an Academic forum and as you can understand a real-life solution would never appear here.
But let's forget the W task (truss out of relaxed mesh with depth, known as W in our trade). See for instance a step prior the "thickness".
General guideline:
1. Create a boundary (a BrepFace) and attempt to do some "reasonable" Mesh via Mesh Machine.
2. Mastermind a policy to manage anchors (naked and/or clothed vertices). This appears easy but is impossible without code IF you want to do it interactively.
3. Separate naked edges from clothed ones (as we do in real-life in tensile membranes etc etc) in order to apply different goal parameters.
4. Relax the mesh (K231 engine).
5. Either work with a "geodesic" structure (W = 0) or make a truss out of the mesh in 4. In either case decide the real-life system in use (say a Mero KK or some other).
6. Check clash truss members issues and interactively vary vertices in order to resolve them.
7. Create all the required connectivity Trees (VV, VE, EV).
8. Mastermind the skin solution (only for experienced pros: avoid at any cost that one).
My advice? Unless you are very determined ... well ... what about choosing an easier design task?
…
of similar/WOW buildings that failed (or leaked) including a very famous one.
2. You must use instance definitions for the truss parts (sleeves, cones, rods and the likes) otherwise the whole thing could become an unworkable nightmare.
3. You must address clash issues otherwise doing it is out of question. These affect the skin parts as well (but as I said: this is 100% pro territory).
4. Your structural analysis (in order to make any sense) must deal with real life components either commercially available or bespoke things designed for the specific project.
5. Wind/Seismic effects can cause skin component issues/failures/leaks as it happened ... well ... in a variety of contemporary famous buildings.
6. Vapor condensation yields (in most of similar cases) buildings that "rain from the inside" - nothing serious, mind: just have an umbrella ready.

h tree is actually a number of curves in rhino. I am then refreancing those groups of curves [trees] into grasshopper so each tree [group of curves] is held in one crv compnent. this is where my problem starts. The end goal is to extract endpoints from branches in each tree, then add splines that go through those endpoints of each tree in order, i.e. point 0 - tree 0, point 0 - tree 1, point 0 - tree2, point 0 - tree 3 ......... My problem is that i cant seem to get the data structured in a way that each branch holds each tree or group of curves, my problem may be that i start with (x) lists of (y)curves in each list. corresponding to x curve components [each a tree] with y curvres in them [each a crv of respective tree in rhino] Now i say x lists with y curves becuase right now its set up 6 lists each with somewhere between 20 and 45 curves in each, but those both will be changing often through iterations. so my problem may not be changing the structure of the data but getting it structured the way i want from the begining. I cant see to pass each of those trees into a component and have it come out as x lists/branchs of y crvs each, i either get one branch with (x*y) curves in the list, so essentiall all curves in the model. or i get (x*y) branches each with 1 curve per branch, essentially creating a new branch for every single curve. I have been working with the path mapper to try and solve but no luck, like i said i think it may be somethign to do with how it is structured from the begining rather than changing it down the line. attached def and model for referance, any thoughts /ideas greatly appreciated, midcrit on wednesday and need to get this base def working so i can start pumping out iterations with added attraction and repulsion fields built into trees/points.…

You can download this release from the usual location. The internal version number for this release is 0.9.0068.
Fixes:
All expressions inside parameters now use 'x' as the variable instead of the nickname. Old files should be converted automatically.
GetDataTree method calls with mismatched parameter access would display the wrong error message, this is fixed.
Menu items on submenus that are disabled due to document states could not be triggered by shortcuts or buttons, this is fixed.
Lofting would fail with zero-length start and end profiles, this is fixed (they are now treated as points).
When lofting failed due to invalid profile curves, the error message was useless, this is fixed.
Under rare conditions null entries in persistent data would cause the Manage X Collection window to crash, this is fixed.
Mouse Leave events on the Expression Editor window would sometimes cause a crash due to null timers, this is fixed.
Offsetting curves would sometimes result in superfluous control points, this is fixed.
Trim Solid would fail if one of the trimming shapes did not intersect the base shape, this is fixed.
Solid Difference would fail if one of the trimming shapes did not intersect the base shape, this is fixed.
The annealing history curve in the Galapagos window would sometimes crash on repaint, this is fixed.
Having a (partially) transparent background colour for a Text Panel would crash the panel editor window, this is fixed.
The Evaluate component would crash when editing an expression with coincident variable names, this is fixed.

n #, row #, seat #, various value metrics, etc.).
I can also use Elefront to bring this data back in along with the geometry, but the geometry comes in flat. Normally I would grab a corresponding tree structure from somewhere upstream in the definition or internalize the structure if I'm starting a new definition and then apply this to an unflatten component to restructure the geometry.
However, I got to wondering if I could use the flattened row and seating data from my object's user dictionary to reconstruct a tree. To keep things simple, I start the numbering at 0 instead of 1 to match the way Grasshopper indices work.
If I have 2 sections, each with 3 rows, and the rows have 4, 5, and 6 seats respectively, my seat data per seat would look like this (spaces are for pattern clarity):
0123 01234 012345 0123 01234 012345
And my row data per seat would look like this:
0000 11111 222222 0000 11111 222222
I was able to use these two numerical patterns alone to reconstruct the tree but I suspect my solution is inefficient. I'm including images and the definition itself in case anyone wants to take a stab at it.

al other things:1. the minimum and maximum spacing between points (a certain 'x' and 'y');2. the jump between two next points - let's say it is always 2. So if a minimum possible spacing is 'x' (pt.1) then the next one would be x+2, then x+4, x+6 etc. until it gets to x+n=y (the maximum);3. how many maximum/minimum points there are in a row - when a division reaches the minimum 'x' or maximum 'y distance I want it to stay there for a while (e.g. [...] x+(n-2), x+n=y, y, y, y, y, x+(n-2), x+(n-4)...) Therefore, what I want to get after dividing the base curve are curve pieces of following lenghts/points on the curve with following distances between them (for example):x, x, x, x+2, x+4, x+8 . . . x+n, y, y, y, y, y, x+n . . . x+4, x+2, x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x+2, x+4 . . . x+n, y, y, y, x+n . . . x-2, x, x, x, x, x-2 . . . and so on and on.As you can see the amounts of x's and y's in a row changes (Rule no.3).I've tried this with graphs and attractor points and got nowhere in almost 2 weeks (though I'm a beginner).. Perhaps someone here will have an idea :)I'm attaching a picture of what I have in mind (may be easier to understand than what I wrote for some people :))Cheers…
ight. Note that i added the Ladybug component to simplify the inputs...
Here are some functions i'd love to see:
1. Ability to cull down to a partial year / date range AND hours range. Currently the DSchedule component can only truncate time of day. But if for example i want to look at averages just during the summer months between 9am - 6pm, i have to do that in the excel .ill file. It seems that the components may allow this already, just not sure which settings need to be set (seems that the reporting frequency has something to do with this...)
2. I'd also like to be able to look at a subset of the points to look at averages in a part of the grid. The easiest i presume would be just to pull item #s; maybe there's a way to add visual identifiers to the selection option? Again, have been doing this in the .ill file.
3. Provide, as an alternative to the .pts file, the option to input the point geometry directly from the rhino file - maybe this would help with #2?
4. I read up on your explanation on showing point-in-time values but can't seem to get that working. Would love to be able to do slider animations of the point-in-time calcs over a day like the bottom right of this (here i used Ladybug but the DA output would be more accurate).
5. Visualization Bounds doesn't seem to work on the daylighting side - would like to be able to manually change.
6. Showing the peaks is a fantastic addition! But all that information is bundled in the python script - would love a way to parse it out to just show the peak numbers for example.
7. Similarly to how DIVA shows data, it'd be great to add a component that visualizes the simulation parameters and color scale in the Rhino viewport...:)
i'm sure there's more as i continue to use it...
great script.

o far (abstracted for brevity) have been: 1) decompose the brep to extract the faces for each cardinal orientation 2) Extract the corner points of these faces (my script here is a little rough - would appreciate feedback) 3) Draw lines from these corner points to a curve that represents the sidewalk on the other side of the street 4) intersect these lines with a plane 5) draw a Polyline through these intersection points (using a clever bit of VB written by David Rutten) 6) Make a surface from this polyline that represents the perceived building mass as seen from the sidewalk on the other side of the street. This seems like it should be simple, but I'm struggling to make it work for every facade of the building, and for any geometry I throw at it.
So far I've been successful for one facade of the building, but my script breaks down for the other facades. I think the breakdown lies in drawing the polyline between the intersection points - though I may have created this problem earlier in the script in my corner point extraction strategy.
Working Script:
Broken Script:
I'm writing this script to allow me to analyze many building massing options in a short amount of time. I'm trying to make it work universally for a large range of geometries. Any help you can provide would be awesome!
I've attached the script and the rhino model. I've done my best to annotate the script and highlight the area that I believe to be broken.
Thanks,
Matt

The thing is that if I raise the -aa parameter from 0.05 to 0.1 all works fine..
Is this only related to my PC then?? What should I do to solve this issue?
Thanks again for your help
