Hi all, One of my scripts give an error in Revit 2022 with Dynamo version 2.12.0.5650. Does anyone know how to fix this problem or is there an alternative node or python code? Warning: Tools.SplitPipeByPoints operation failed.

Hi @jw.vanasselt, You can use the _Split ByPoints_ node of the _Genius Loci_ package instead. ![Split ByPoints](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/a/3/a35a59d0994978f582dee8dfb899cd1e65304f88.png) ---

That’s amazing, my script will be a lot more faster! 🙂 I can delete alot of extra nodes by this one. Thanks! ---

Is there a maximum to split? I want to do it multiple times in 1 pipe/duct: Is this a lacing / level problem? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/6/9/69518cb7f45084c972e89dc4af1e876fd383706d.png) ---

Hi @igor.guilherme , Over here an example: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/7/a/7aaaa071226b77d50c0c947ed156e2b927a9f887.png) The levels in the nodes depends on the structure. ---

Do you have a file numbering the location of the splitted ducts?
