    The document describes RainRoof V2.0, a Grasshopper definition for generating rainwater collection roof systems. It contains two User Defined Functions (UDFs) for rain tubes and roof panels, and three knowledge patterns to create a point grid, instantiate the rain tubes, and instantiate the roof panels. Users can adjust the input points, global parameters for height, opening radius, and divisions, and number of rows in the point grid. Further development includes adding output parameters, preventing structural issues, multiple resolution levels, caps, and test applications.
