Artyom,

 

perhaps if you post the files it would be much easier to help. Maybe what Kim suggested could be the problem.

your definition is so complicated. 

I make definition simple and fixed.

I think that your definition problem is loft option. 

if you connect loft option, see your problem.

but disconnect component, your definition is correct. so you should set a new loft option.

Hello,

first of all, thanks for help everyone! 

I've been experimenting with different variations of the posted definitions and came to this:

 

Kim, your variant worked just fine until I increased the number of cells, it became just painfully slow, even maybe 10 times slower than mine, so I returned back to it. Nevertheless it helped a lot!

 

The next thing that I figured out is that the lags that I got with loft depended directly from fillet amount, check the image below.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks!

I've worked a bit more with the definition and got one problem:

what i wanted to get is the variable normal offset for the voro cells centers, but when connecting that part of def. the program just hangs. I think that might be because of the SrfMorf that I'm using, but I'm not sure. 

 

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot.
