Growth

This is a Blender plugin that simulates branched growth towards particles. This version is still in alpha.

Things I'm still working on:

• Make better geometry. (find and fix bugs)
  • The first branches are not connected properly.
  • Probably kill nearly overlapping particles for better results.
  • Fix the straight continuous growing veins. (it should die earlier)
  • Stacking of vertecies exists, prevent this.
  • Strange wafers
• Option to close tips. They will grow towards eachother and close.
• Option to have branches grow stakes in between for a more rigid structure. (3d printing structures)
• Add a material to the vein clusters.
• Shade smooth.
• Add thickness patterns.
• Object origin at cursor.
• Add proper error handling for when wrong items are selected.
• Make option to have the vertex without skin.
• Add choice to add modifiers.
• Add choice to apply or not to apply modifiers.
• Add settings for subdivision modifier.
• Add info about at with iteration all veins died.
• Internal limit on iterations to prevent killing the swap size.
• Add choice if you want to set a material to generated cluster(s)
• Add input field for material name.
• Documentation.
