e a branch. Say I had two geometry collections with 14 objects each, which makes for 28 geometries. Is there a way to retain each geometry collection's list as individual branches rather than them getting turned into individual branches per geometry?
I.e. when i check what pts.BranchCount outputs, I get 28 instead of 2.…
Not so shy, since our Job offer http://www.grasshopper3d.com/profile/IthraProject at July 28, 2010 we employ four active Grasshopper members. It´s a good team to join.
us. Here I would use catchment component instead.
Apart from this; considering you want to assign any value to a number of objects: you have 28 locations (corresponding to circles) and 78 values! What do you want to do? 28*78 different objects (circles)? If so you need to graft the point input of circle component. What sense would it make; I do not see!

which doesn't exist in the actual problem spec. If galapagos is allowed to change the column position in all possible directions, it is less likely to get stuck in some local optimum.
Let's assume that (all other things being equal) column 20 would yield the best possible answer. The current state of the system though is at column 26, which is pretty good too, just not as good. Galapagos is more likely to 'mutate' the state a little bit instead of a lot, so it'll explore the columns near 26. However 20 isn't near 26 at all, only 25 and 27 are nearby, and maybe 24 and 28. But they'll all worse answers, so after sampling in those directions GP will abandon that as fruitless.
If however you specify the columns using two variables, then the columns near 26 are 20, 25, 27 and 32. That's a far richer space to explore which much better approximates the real problem.…
eone would know how to group each data position from each branch ... meaning, for instance, that I have a list of data with 3 branches, each branch containing 28 data instances (see attached image). Now, how would I get the (0;0)+(1;0)+(2;0) to be grouped in a new branch, as well as (0;1)+(1;1)+(2;1) and so on?
Also, I need for the setup to able to take in variables, so that the 3 branches might change to 6, and the 28 data instances might to change to anything between 10 and 100.
Thanks in advance,
