another quick crowd q - using a force to knock them outwards?


Recommended Posts

hi guys i'm trying to generate an exposion with a crowd of ragdoll characters - i have them walking to the centre of my scene then i use an expanding ball shape to blast them outwards.

it sorta works..

its working quite well overall but from above i get this clear ring.. so is there a way to use a force instead to knock them outwards?  I'm guessing it would be a pop force potentially but i cant seem to get that to work weirdly its like they dont affect the particles at the helm of the crowd sim?

What if you apply an animated mountain to your existing ball shape?

Ah that's a good idea actually.. I have a mountain on it to deform the shape but never occurred to animate it.  It seems when I get stuff to dops I forget about obvious tricks like that heh
