I'm new to the software and have been experimenting with the particle attractor to attract particles to an object. What i would like to do is switch out that object so the particles rearrange themselves to the new one. Since the SOP path does not have a nodal connection in the popattract node itself, is there some sort of trick to accomplish this switch ?
Any help would be great.
Switch between two POPattractors (or switching the SOP path)

just switch source geometry in SOPs with Switch SOP then reference the result in POP Attract SOP Path
or
animate SOP Path parameter on POP Attract node directly (yes you can keyframe string values in parms in Houdini) so it changes from one path to another
or
if you want the control per particle, have 2 streams with POP Attract and just switch between them with some rule per particle
