"UNTIL" comand? Is there such a thing as: enlarge until.... in VB script?

I don't know VB script yet. Is there a "Until" option in VB script, or is there a way to make a definition in GH to achieve that effect?

For example, when object "A" touches object "B" then Object "A" is "null"....
....then Enlarge object "A" untill "null".

Basically enlarge an obect that it touches another object. But think of multiple objects like bricks in a wall scalling outward from points untill all 4 sides touch.

Maybe a stupid question.

Hi Theunis,

this can be done by an infinite loop in a VB component. It is not possible to create custom loops using the node-editor (yet).

I've been able to sort of iterate between components using the timer, but it's not pretty and requires you to do ugly stuff to save variables at the end stages of the definition and re-read them at the beginning. You also have to stop the timer manually. Not very practical but it shouldn't be too hard to implement a decent solution for this without chaning a whole lot how everything works right now.
