Killing Particles |
|
|
As was described in the Generating
Particles and Particle Lifetime section, particles are automatically
removed from the scene or killed when they reach the end of their
lifetime.
The Kill Operator adds the capability of killing particles that meet selected criteria. The Kill Operator will remove any particle that falls within its Domain, if it has one, and passes the test configured by the parameters. |
|
|
The Particle Attribute selects which value will be used for the test. The Min and Max values set the lower and upper values to be used for the test. The Test dial selects the test type.
|
|
|
The available Particle Attributes are Age, Speed, Mass, Scale, Scale XYZ and Temperature. The Scale is the current Scale value of the particle while Scale XYZ is the total of the three scale components. The Test types are None, All, If Greater Than Max, If Less Than Min, If Between Max and Min and If Outside Max and Min. The None option effectively turns off the Kill Operator. The All option will kill all particles that are in the Domain. The other options perform their tests using the Min and Max parameters.
