      I'm looking to see if there is some kind of parametric building/modeling massing plugin, etc for SKP. Ideally, say I'm doing multifamily, I can open a plugin, type how many stories the building is, select single loaded or double loaded corridor, and then by click and dragging a line out, building massing is generated with the correct floor heights, every time I drag out another 30' or so another unit is added (maybe this is just a rectangle) and if the line takes a corner the plugin would place a corner unit there. Obviously there are other features that would be helpful, but just wanted to ask and see if anyone has heard of anything like this? Thanks!

            • it's an urban design extension that seems like it might line up with what you're looking for.

              Aaah, if only Modelur was cheaper.

                It's definitely not targeted as a hobbyist extension πŸ˜„

                  That's pretty much exactly what I was looking for! Yeah it's pretty but maybe worth it. Thanks.
