Futuristic city builder generator

myminifactory

Hi! This is my very first customizer - a simplified version of an OpenSCAD program that I made using Processing (processing.org) a few years ago. With the help of this customizer, you can create futuristic buildings, cities or ships in no time! Simply choose the shape and size of the base, then let the algorithm do its magic with a 3D-recursive structure. As for the random element, it's all about a numeric 'seed'. Each seed generates a one-of-a-kind structure, which is conveniently printed at the bottom of the base as a reminder of your unique design. Plus, this seed can come in handy if you want to reproduce the structure later. This combination works incredibly well with Customizable Convex Polyhedra (thingiverse.com/thing:233540), resulting in awesome stands for your futuristic cities. Check out the instructions and photos for more info on how to use the customizer and merge it with polyhedral stands. I've also included an STL file of a Truncated Dodecahedron generated from thingiverse.com/thing:233540, along with some STLs and a ZIP file containing many figures that I created during development. Have fun! By the way, I made a few tweaks to the geometry in this updated version (July 30th, 2016) to prevent overhanging problems when printing big models. The results are similar, but you'll notice a slight change in the overhangs of the 'pyramids'. If you enjoyed this customizer, be sure to check out Sci-Fi city builder (thingiverse.com/thing:1707835).
