The code has been updated to:

-add flat panels

-add connections on all interior panels, all edge panels still to be updated

-add three-digit annotation

-flatten and array for nesting on sheets

Still to be updated:

-edge connections

-flatten and array text

-add connection holes & tab

-possibly align perpendicular to panel

Three versions of the connection through code….

The most recent connection which eliminates the “U” shape and minimizes the arm lengths.  Still 2 up & 2 down with annotation.
