finiteelementsolver; get data from SOPs and evaluate on each step

[Juzwa]

Hi, 

So Im testing the cloth and tearing (fracturing). What controls the fracturing is @fracturethreshold. So I tested this with geometrywrangle 

if (@Frame > 25)
{
    @fracturethreshold = fit(rand(@ptnum), 0, 1, -, 5);
}

And it works great. But now I want more control over it but on the SOP level. Ofcourse decided to use @Cd. 

But Im having problems because I dont know how to update data from SOP level on each frame.

I tried this expression in sop solver, but evaulates to 0 (so error?):

@fracturethreshold = point("/obj/FLAG_MODEL/dopimport1", "Cd.x", @ptnum);

 

So how to use data from SOP level and evaluate it on each frame?

Is this what you're after?

Yeah thats exactly what I was looking for, thank you.

I just thought that dop_import is the same as object merge. But it looks like its not
