I’m creating a Voltage Drop graph, and I need to loop these final groups of nodes increasing the index # for grabbing from assorted Wire Size associated lists from earlier in the graph until the results end up below 3%. To further complicate this, different circuits will need to loop different number of times.
The outputs I want are the combined list of circuit VDrop, and a combined list of final index #s for grabing from the reference Wire Size lists.
Instead of iterating over different wire sizes until you find the one that works, couldn’t you just solve for the necessary size at 3% and check that against a list of wire sizes? Then you just have to round up to the nearest wire size.

Thanks for linking that posts, it explained explained the LoopWhile node better than any post I found with my searches.
What I needed to do was take the nodes I wanted to loop and make a custom family with them, and also to keep the looping data as a lists of lists that can be connected to the ‘Init’ input on the LoopWhile node.
This was more of a challenge to myself in order to learn the LoopWhile node.
