+ `Tree Support Branch Diameter` and `Tree Support Branch Diameter Angle` behave like in the current tree support implementation, but `Tree Support Branch Diameter Angle` is ignored when a diameter increase would invalidate a branch, as a small branch has a higher chance of supporting the model than no branch at all. # What does it do better:
