Here is Rich Lord’s awesome Vex/Vop math hip. Great for learning the ins and outs of orientation, quaternions, dihedral, etc: http://richardlord.tumblr.com/post/159277887181/ive-started-collecting-a-bunch-of-tricks-i-use-a

probalby grab it from there instead since I mightve made modifications by mistake

i was actually heading towards this but went a bit off-piste:

the key seems to be not fully undiverging the vel, to avoid the path to mushroom city? i failed horribly tryna do it with the smoke solver. also didn’t get far with Gas Enforce Boundary so just mult stuff down at the edge of the shape… finally it sources extra vel from the gradient of the ink field so the edges constantly push outwards

Circle Packing stuff. @jamesowen sent me a stack exchange post on this effect, and i foolishly said it would be easy. 3 days later i finally got it working :3

good luck boyes, only works on h16.5 due to the edge transport node :3

I try to use VEX as much as possible, so I have prepared some “uber” system for myself. I define my custom functions in one “uber.vfl”, where is also typical use (a snippet) of this function, with chf() chramp() etc. Then I push a button and this uberfile is split and automaticaly written into three files: 1) /vex/include 2) this bit.ly/2FbskfB system to be able to replace “code shortcuts” with the snippets 3) simple helpcard, just a list of names of my functions.

I also improved the automatic UI generator, so it reads comments and generates toggle chi() when the comment is // toggle. It also automatically changes the type of chs() to Node type or File type reference. It also creates separators.

If someone is interested, I would improve and comment the python scripts. With better English than this, hopefully.
