hi everyone , i've got some particles which are being advected by some volume, i wanna apply gravity force to these particles when reached to some specific Age, so they are not affected by the volume velocity anymore from some age, as AdvectByVolume node uses velocity information of a volume to do advection, gravity seems not to be overriding and affecting it correctly . what can i do to achieve something like this ? thanks a lot for any help ..

Probably a few ways to do this, but I would put a simple conditional statement in the popadvectbyvolumes. See attached

thanks a lot @andyw .. good solution .. i've heard of using a volume sample popVop to do something similar but i have not idea how it can be used as it seems like having more control i don't know . .
