Gradient Descent 2020年4月5日10:41

I ported the example to VEX, thought it might be helpful even though the thread is a few years now.

int numiterations = chi("number_of_iterations");
float gravity = chf("gravity");
float max_search_distance = chf("max_search_distance");

vector last_position = @P;
for (int _i=0; _i < numiterations; _i++) {
    
    // Move with gravity
    //        |
    //        |
    //        v
    vector new_position = last_position + set(0, -gravity, 0);
    
    // Resolve collision
    //
    //    _____|
    //   /     |
    //  /      |\
    // /       v -->
    //            \____
    //
    last_position = minpos(1, "", new_position, max_search_distance);

    int ptnum = addpoint(0, last_position);
    setpointattrib(0, "id", ptnum, @ptnum);
}

That look absolutely marvelous, SYmek. Will to some reading up on it.

Did some checking up on COM as well which looks interesting.

Please forgive my poor programming knowledge but, to use COM, one would essentially need to write plug-ins for both Houdini and Maya, right?
