Hello,
I am trying to create a looping tube shape with polywire but it creates a weird twisted shape where the points stop being sequential.
What is the cause of this and how can I fix it?
I am also attaching the hip file.
Thank you in advance.

your curve is actually 2 curves with opposite flow, the easiest to join them into a single curve is to use Poly Path SOP instead of Fuse SOP
then you can use Orientation along curve to compute continuous up vector for Poly Wire SOP
or you can use Sweep SOP directly which computes the orientation in the same way
(there is a lot of geo processing happening on your curves, so rather than cleaning that uo I'm treating your resulting curves as a source geo)
