How to reconcile data outside/inside cluster? Data lost in translation when it comes out of cluster.

Hi all,

I have had this problem before. Data in the cluster does not match data outside cluster. How to reconcile them?

Thanks,

Try removing existing Cluster Outputs and putting new ones.

Does this happen after editing? After creating a cluster anew? Does it still happen if the file is saved, closed and re-opened?

So I jumped the gun because I have had this issue in the past. Particularly pertaining to null values and empty trees.

As it turns out this time I cried wolf (sorry) before inspecting thoroughly. My inputs are in fact equal to my outputs. Will raise this issue again in the future if I encounter it.

Thanks,

The reason this occurs (when it does) is that empty branches seem to "disappear" when you view the inside of a cluster. http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/cluster-input-removes-emp.... Wombat "insert nulls in empty branches" is specifically designed as a way to get around this problem - nulls will be preserved in and out of the cluster.
