ite CyclicQuad?
Try to define an average circle - for each combination of 3 sets of points get the circle defined by the 3 points (rhino has an inbuilt Circle(p1, p2, p3) method). Next average the centre points and radii for all 4 circles. Finally move the points closer or further away from this average centre point based on the average radius??…

now.
This V4 can sense if you feed it with your points and uses these instead of the p1,p2,p3 (it's a prelude for V5 that uses DataTrees of points making any surface subdivision a reality). Do the following: sample a triad of your points (NOT internalized) and feed the C# . Then ... start dragging these Rhino points around (the C# responds accordingly). See any difference?
The topology:
Well, the whole fractal logic (in this case) is to have 3 pts on hand (call them p1,p2,p3 : red, green, blue) and then project the "right" one, say, p3 to the Line (p1,p2) > do this > do that ... blah blah.
But ... what p3? that's the 1M question: Here for instance the right p3 (blue) is (by accident) the 3rd point entered (it's obvious the "projection" recursive logic):
but if you drag around a bit the points : p3 is now different (C# does this by sorting synchronously the triangle angles per point VS points) Numbers are used to indicate that "swift" : (0 for the new p1, 1 for the new p2, 2 for the new p3... etc). Compare with the initial points (red = ex p1, green = ex p2 , blue = ex p3).
and again different:
The 1M question:
In fractal thinking the big thing is when to stop: I could obviously control that by a counter ... but here the requirement is the tile min size (within unpredictable amount of recursions) : this is what the stop logic used does.
The 1B question:
So ... implementing fractal logic (against DataTrees of points) to a parametric environment ... requires a lot of questions: because each time the size of the start triad varies ... whilst the stop condition is constant: meaning that with a little bit of "good" luck you can reach incredible high amount of tiles (computer out of memory > Adios Amigos).
Obviously I'm taking having all possibilities in mind and especially big projects > big facades > millions (or zillions) of tiles > Armageddon > ....

ame)); (if p is List: tomas.AddRange(p, new GH_Path(path_name));)
if you have to add p1, p2, p3 "at once":
tomas.AddRange(new Point3d[3]{p1,p2,p3});
if you have to order tomas pts VS their distance to a point named focus:
tomas = tomas.OrderBy(x => x.DistanceTo(focus)).ToList();
etc etc…

HiIf you are encountering a problem with rhino 6 versions don't worryFollow these steps.1. Download SYNTACTIC from https://sites.google.com/site/pirouznourian/syntactic-design2. Install it and go to the installation folder, Drag & drop SYNTACTIC(green one) over your grasshopper canvas.3. Close your rhino and reopen it. 4. Type GrasshopperDeveloperSettings5. Tick the Memory load *.GHA assemblies using COFF byte arrays option6. Run grasshopper and enjoy plugin
I hope this helps,
Best regards,
