Hi Joaquim,

Okay, thinking about this more I can achieve a good loft by offsetting using a loop carrying along the original curves original discontinuity points through each iteration via closest point.

you need the anemone plugin: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/anemone

and the mesh loft from mesh tools (its faster than normal loft): http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/milkbox/forum/topics/mesh-pipe-a...

So now when an edge gets "eaten" by offset, the points go to that merge and create the correct triangulation while still maintaining the proper offset.
