how to order a list item of points

I am working on a definition with multiple attractors. There is an issue that if an attract distance is high, the lines between the points break due to Closest point component.

I used a Voronoi component to divide the points on a surface.

Is there any component that retrive the original item order (blue, below) at the red

arrow(below in the image)?

I attached the files.

Hey,

I only managed it by splitting you definition into 3 parts refering to the attractorpoints. That takes a little bit the variation possibilities, but have a look.

thank you for quick reply!!!

but I was looking for the definition that works no matter how many points there are. (just adding points at beginning of the definition)

UPDATE:

Here's the same methodology except I've done away with the voronoi --> Inside segment

It makes use of Convex Hull to create a reference Surface to be used in the CP Surface component. The points are then ordered based on the UV co-ordinates. Then it uses a Relative Tree Component to get the boundary points of each sub surface.
