Applies drag particles.

On this page

Overview

This tool uses the POP Drag node to define a drag to particles. When a force is applied to particles, it makes them move faster and faster. Drag helps slow down the particles so that they do not infinitely increase their speed. Drag can also be used to simulate things moving through water or other high density spaces.

Using Drag

  1. Create a particle system along the curve using the Location or Source shelf tools.

  2. Click the Drag tool on the Particles tab.

For specific parameter help, see the Drag node help.
