Distance Based Connect Adjacent Points

[UltraRenders]

I’m looking for a way to go about connecting points based on a min/max distance.
 

My goal is to skip connecting the points closest to the starting point, and only connect to points within the minimum distance threshold.

With SOPs:
Connect adjacent pieces-node, activate length attribute.
Blast node set to primitives, group field: @restlength<0.02

With VEX:

float radius_min = chf('radius_min');
float radius_max = chf('radius_max');
int pts_max = chi('maximum_points');

float dists[];
int pts[] = pcfind(0, 'P', v@P, radius_max, pts_max, dists);
foreach(int i; int pt; pts){
    if(dists[i] > radius_min){
        addprim(0, 'polyline', i@ptnum, pt);
    }
}

Amazing! Thanks so much!
