Fast Packer
This tool allows ‘dirty cheap’ packing of shapes close to a circle or a square, so that they do not overlap. Specially useful combined with a Cells 2 voronoi node.
This node has a color version.
Plug your shape to be packed. Be sure to be a form with circular or square boundaries (not a rectangular or very irregular one). Connect also your cells map to contain internal copies of your shape. Be sure to be a black lines over white background, with fine lines. Try first with a “Cells 2” with a zero Edge Width.
This node is based on a development shared by Nicolas Wirrmann on Substance Discord.
