Geometry.intersect source code

1

Hello,
I’m looking for a python code that would do the same as geometry.intersect.
In my case, I would like to intersect two lists of solids with the same number of elements.
I just need to compare the element A (0) with B (0), then A (1) with B (1) … etc

Hello, please send what you found so far on this topic…

Hello,
I tried to change the Clash Detection V1 node, but I have only empty single list.

This node seems to work pretty well actually:

Hi
Yes, but the problem is that it will process all combinations of 2 lists.
For a list of 100 items this represents 10,000 combinations.
But in my case I have 2 lists or each item of a list already corresponds to the second list.
It is necessary to compare A (0) with B (0), then A (1) with B (1).

Actually, it doesn’t seem to process all combinations in my case…

If, looking at the original code of the Clash Detection V1 node, there are 2 nested loops.

Ok I think I have found it.
