Sample Randoms

vector2  randV = rand(@ptnum);
@P = sample_circle_uniform(randV);
@P = sample_circle_edge_uniform(rand(@ptnum));
@P = sample_circle_ring_uniform(randV,.65);
@P = sample_circle_slice({0,1},3.14/4,randV);

Fuse and accumulate pscale

requires id = ptnum

float accumulation = 0;
if(@group_snapped_points){
    int pts[] = findattribval(0,"point","snapped_to",@ptnum);
    i@fusedpts = len(pts);
    foreach(int id;pts){
            accumulation += pow( point( 0, "pscale", id ) / 2.0 , 3 );
    }
    @pscale = 2 * pow(accumulation , 1.0/3);
}

if(@snapped_to != -1 && @ptnum != @snapped_to){
    removepoint(0,@ptnum);
}

Attractors

attr wrangle

float radius = chf('max_radius');
int maxpoints =chi('max_points');


int pnum;
for(int i=0;i<npoints(1);i++){
    vector pos = point(1,"P",i);

    int pc = pcopen(0,'P',pos,radius,maxpoints );
    while(pciterate(pc)){
        pcimport(pc,'point.number',pnum);
        vector p = point(0,'P',pnum);
        
        
        
        float ratio = length(pos-p)/radius;
        float falloff = chramp('falloff',ratio);
        vector newpos = lerp(pos,p,falloff);
        
        //addColor
        vector newcol = hsvtorgb(float(rand(pos)),falloff,1);
        setpointattrib(0,'Cd',pnum,newcol);
        setpointattrib(0,'P',pnum,newpos);
        setpointattrib(0,'falloff',pnum,falloff);
    }
}

i think it's slow and stupid this is better (point wrangle)

float maxdist = chf('maxdistance');



float @distance[];
for(int i=0;i<npoints(1);i++){
    vector pos = point(1,'P',i);
    float dist = clamp(distance(@P,pos)/maxdist,0,1);
    float falloff = chramp('falloff',1-dist);
    @P = lerp(@P,pos,falloff);
    //append(@distance,distance(@P,pos));
    append(@distance,dist);
}
