Nemiko Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Hello everyone! The guys need help how to slow down or stop a particle based on its age. That is, the more her age. the slower she moved and then stopped altogether deceleration.hip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuki Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) hey @Nemiko, you could use the inverse of @nage (normalized age, going 0-1 from birth to death - equivalent to @life/@age) as a damping factor on @v. In the example file, you can adjust the profile of the damping/stopping effect with a ramp parameter. To stop the wind from acting on deactivated points I just put them in a group and exclude it on the popforce parameters. I adjusted the max lifetime (which is in seconds) of the particles to make values easier to pin down with the ramp, but you could also fit(val, min_val, max_val, 0, 1) the value into 0-1 range before running it through the ramp instead to prevent particles from dying. deceleration.hiplc Edited January 12, 2021 by nuki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
