separate

 

 

This node will separate particles (perfect spheres) away one from each other based on the particle scale parameter used as separation distance. Algorithm works on a whole particle group.

 

 

[Inputs]

 

Enabled - Enable or disable node evaluation.

 

Particle Group - Select particle group that you want to separate.

 

Iterations - This is iterative process and as the number of particle rise, so should the number of iterations.

 

Strength % - Algorithm can detect when two particles interpenetrate and then it will move those particles apart. Lower values can create smoother separation when large number of particles are moving close to each other.

 

Neighbours - Number of neighbours that each particle will test for interpenetration.

 

Particle Scale Mult - This value scales the particle scale attribute.

 

Use Custom Distance - Instead of using particle scale as a separation distance, user can define a custom distance.

 

Custom Distance - Define the custom distance.
