In this Paracourse Lesson we are going to use the millipede plugin combined with Galapagos to optimize the location of a series of columns for a simple roof. First we are going to define the geometric parameters for the columns and then define the structure.

In this Grasshopper tutorial, we will learn how to generate a structural grid from a series of grid points.
In this Grasshopper tutorial, we will explore how to create a simple parametric gear and a radial mechanism, and also include an example file for the Iris mechanism.
In this Grasshopper tutorial, we will learn how to create a series of parametric solids using the "Tangent Arcs" component.
In this Grasshopper tutorial, we will model a parametric brick wall on a NURBS surface with a rectangular projection. We can also adjust the thickness of the bricks based on point attractors.

Cool example!
Is it possible that Millipede is no longer updated?
If so, could there be problems in newer Rhino/ Grasshopper versions?
And is there any reason why Millipede is dead?
Other than that, thanks for the very helpful tutorial.
Is there a comparable plugin alternative that has the same feature set as Millipede?
Greetings,
Ludwig
