As requested by Alex above http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI here is a new node proposal for the wishlist.
GeoPack Node
This proposed node would take a field of points and calculate radii of close packing circles at each point. These outputs would serve as inputs for "circle" node, or alternatively "polygon" node. Obviously shapes other than circles will not truly close pack, so a "scale" input is included to adjust sizing of individual elements. I have included a pointArray output, however it may be removed, as the point source output would serve similar function.
I have shown here the "GeoPack" node paired with "Dither" node (proposed earlier: http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=9581.122 ) to create an image based circle packing illustration.
