I highly doubt that these are wooly paths... wooly paths are based on curve to curve attraction, and as I can see here, paths are deformed with point attractors.

Mohammad, what I do for this is

1: set attractor points and pull point all the grid points to those attractors

2: using equals say "if the distance is greater than x then cull"

3: Pull point again the but with the new culled list to the attractors

4: replace the original list, items to replace = the points remaining after the cull. Items to replace with = new points overlapping the attractors.

5: remove duplicate points.

6: Interpolate curves.

give it a try.

Hi Michael, this example looks interesting, I already know how to make this pull things in a plane, would you mind upload you GH file then I can learn how to do it as 3D way?

Hi Hyungsoo Kim,

thanks again man! Never used the Replace item before, already thought flatten the list is a bad idea didnt knew about the use, i think now i will remember the next time.
