Automatic restart of Galapagos

Hello everybody,

I currently us Galapagos to optimise composite section along various stations of a structural beam. Therefore I have indexed the boundary shape of beam stations in a data tree and manually increase the index once the optimiser has found a solution fulfilling my constraints/targets. The results are very promising so far, so that I would now like to automate this Grasshopper routine including the Galapagos solver in a way that once the optimiser has reached the target it stops, the optimiser window close, the index gets counted up an then the optimiser starts again on the new index.

Did anyone ever use or do something like that? Maybe there is some code I could reuse that calls up the Galapagos solver and starts it. I myself have pretty basic knowledge in coding but one of my colleagues has advanced knowledge.

I already have a manual index routine running (pretty basic if statements) that once the target is reached the index gets counted up and the results are being exported in the background. That way Galapagos never stops (the internal Galapagos target is way smaller then the manual index counting routine), but this seems not to be the solution.

Cheers

Stefan
