Hi,

The scene attached is an excerpt from a project im working on where I have a point jitter moving a point around a surface and birting particles from it. Is there anyway I can make it so the point jitter only moves location once every eight frames for example?

I'm thinking there must be a way to write it as an expression in a timeshift node but I cant crack it.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
-Nathan

Hello.
You don't need Time Shift node to do this.
All you need is just write this expression in Seed parameter of Point Jitter node:
floor($F / 8)

Hi

I would like to do the same thing, but I am getting the seed change on every frame when i used the expression. Any thoughts on this?

Can you post a HIP file that demonstrates this?
