hi, I have a question about collisionignore attribute. When setting i@collisionignore=1, I expect particle should go through collision object, but it's still colliding. My guess is collisionignore only works with popcollisiondetect node. Any collision objects with a merge node won't work.  

In other words, how can we control to ignore collision for staticObject?

here's my foolin' around, by that I implied I'm no expert:

s@collisionignore = "xxx"; will not work as there's no object xxx

s@collisionignore = "ground*"; will work for the ground

s@collisionignore = "*"; should work for anything, i hope.

Noobini, Thanks so much for your help! 

Oh collisionignore  is string! I was thinking collisionignore  was integer because I cannot find a page describe VEX collisionignore by search! Anyway, I appreciate your example file, too!

no worries, of course I did NOT know it was of string type...so I simply put down a collisionignore node (not wrangle) that worked fine so

I simply looked in the spreadsheet and it says................................................"*"

No prizes for guessing that it's not an integer but string.

Just reverse engineer something you know that works.

Funny thing is collusion is effectively ignored but if you display hit impact feedback, he consider the collision, turned the particles red, but don't consider it to change the particle behavior.

A bug?
