Culling problem

Hello, I am trying to fix a birdsnest but it doesn't work (i'm trying to get planar ribs for laser cut). Every time I try to cull a pattern, it skips random points.

So I had a little look at your definition and I can't really say where the problem might be, because I am not sure what you are trying to achieve.

Those big stacks of list item components is definetly not the way to do it though. The good thing about list item is that it cant just get 1 item of a list, but it can get multiple items out of a list. So if you want to connect the first point of one list to the last of another and then the second to the second last and so on, you can see a pattern there. So you just use a list item component and in one you plug in a series from for example 0-39 and in the other the reversed series, so 39-0. Then you can just plug in a line component and it will always connect 0 to 39, 1 to 38 and so on.

And whats up with those list items before that are then all merged. Whats the logic behind the order? Or is it just to randomize, because that can also be done with 3 components and it will then work with any number of points.

So you need to lay out what you are trying to achieve and where you think something is not working as expected.
