Tessellation definition

So i have this definition which shows a series of lines which the tessellation then follows, and for now we ( team ) managed to connect different points to make lines of polyhedrons, and they change size depending ont he height, you´ll notice it in the dfinition, however we are stuck, we want to make them have curves... like.. they could bend outwards cause if you see the "tower" is too flat :p... and we would like to add volume but we dont know how other than making more lines for the tessellation to follow, but we could really use some curves, we just havent figured that out yet

Other solution that I myself couldnt figure out and tried to was to make a path for the tessellations, one that looked like a spiral so that they would intersect with each other, but all i can manage for now is straight lines and tessellations that go from point to point but not spirals.

So thats it, Thanks and may you all have a great day.

Yeah there are just some stuff that are in yellow, like the points you added... and some of the flatten components .. and well the tessellatiosn dont want to work tho i guess some things have changed since you worked with rhino 5 so i guess thats the problem :p

I´ll try to get the latest version so that it can work but i really appreciate that you tried to help me :3, who knows maybe its just exactly what i need haha i´ll tell you what happened later.

Have a nice day
