(1) unable to place 4 adaptive points tile on 4 roof nodes(2) repeater missing many tiles on curved part of roof

[heichan88]

Hello, I made an adaptive tile with 4 adaptive points only (other points all hosted). Then when place on a mass, there are two problems 

(1) only 2 adaptive points are recognized on roof nodes, i,e, unable to place 4 adaptive points on 4 nodes

(2) after  repeater, many tiles are missing with error message "delete instance"

this is the final frontier of this BIM model before completed.

Please advice, thanks

While at it, would you mind unmarking all my replies? You should mark only what solves the question as solution and not every single reply you recieve 🙂 this would help other forum visitors find the solution to a similar issue easier

I unmarked some which is not relevant, but some post is contributive though wording short. Thanks

What was the issue described in the original post and which suggestion solved it?! What was suggested or being discussed was:

• 1xpt adaptive 
• vs 2xpt adaptive 
• vs 3xpt adaptive 
• vs 4xpt adaptive 
• vs Pattern Based Panels

I always with thanks as if a shishya with guru, when reading all the previous advice which concerning and contributive, it's worthy if some of my error was pointed frankly, regardless the wording (actually I didn't notice whichever positive or negative), hope all experts here keep going advicing , Thanks to all experts who concern and reply

Below two screenshots show two different 4-pt. Adaptive Point Repeater Families on the exact same divided lofting surface. One Repeater Family’s Adaptive Points are oriented by “Instance (x,y,z)” and the other Repeater Family’s Adaptive Points are oriented to “Host and Loop System (x,y,z)”.  Repeater Families are identical in every other way.  You be the judge of which of the two Adaptive Point orientations perform best.

Instance (x,y,z):

Host and Loop (x,y,z):

Anybody reading this thread can weigh in.  Does one Adaptive Point orientation look like it performs better than the other?

hello @barthbradley 

thanks for your above solution.

Since I acknowledged that: 4 AP is over-designed for tile, which profile shall be fixed but not flexed at 4 corners. So now i have simplified not using 4 APs, and turn to the approach of  (1) 2-AP fixedprofile then (2) nest to pattern then (3) load to roof see my new post https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-architecture-forum/trimming-perfectly-of-pattern-based-tile-par... 

Please kindly participate in this new post and contribute your expert idea there

To my workshop, curve roof is the most complicated but last frontier (and almost done). I am trying various approaches forward (based on each above various advice solutions)  though from each of them new question might come (constrains, project requirements etc). 

Thanks again for your expert advice.
