Question: Smooth cylinder surface

Source of interest in this topic.  There is a problem with drawing a cylinder. I draw a cylinder using the arrow function as follows:

cylinder := seq(arrow(`<,>`((L[1][i]+L[4][i])*(1/2), (L[2][i]+L[5][i])*(1/2), (L[3][i]+L[6][i])*(1/2)), `<,>`(-(L[1][i]+L[4][i])*(1/2)+(L[7][i]+L[10][i])*(1/2), -(L[2][i]+L[5][i])*(1/2)+(L[8][i]+L[11][i])*(1/2), -(L[3][i]+L[6][i])*(1/2)+(L[9][i]+L[12][i])*(1/2)), width = 1, color = green, head_length = 0, head_width = 0, length = VectorNorm(`<,>`((L[1][i]+L[4][i])*(1/2)-(L[7][i]+L[10][i])*(1/2), (L[2][i]+L[5][i])*(1/2)-(L[8][i]+L[11][i])*(1/2), (L[3][i]+L[6][i])*(1/2)-(L[9][i]+L[12][i])*(1/2)), 2), transparency = 0.), i = 1 .. N+1):

(L [j], j = 1..12 - the coordinates of the red points on the cylinder).


But, as you can see, because of the faces, everything does not turn out very smoothly. Is there a way to display the cylinder smoothly, but so that without too much computing resources, ie no more resource than a "arrow"?
