So constellation_points[i] holds the symbol defined in symbol_map[i]. An easy test to see this working is to take the default Constellation Object in GRC, which is defined for QPSK, and change the map to [0,1,3,3] and notice that the symbol 2 (10b) is missing in the output constellation. Without a symbol map defined, it defaults to it being [0, ..., i-1]. The alternative is to crash or catch that the vector is empty and exit on an error. There is the Digital Modulation page in the manual that describes these things.
