Hi
i want to colorize red each primitive just before it's deleted.Lets say primnum no.16 vanishes at frame 10 and i want it to turn red at frame 9 and then vanishes at frame 10
Im removing primitive randomly using removeprim function and animating threshold.
Do you guys have any idea how to solve this?

You could use a solver sop, color red based on threshold and delete all red primitives on next timestep or..
You can use a timeshift to cook another frame and check if the prim is there or..
You can add to your threshold and color all prims red that are closing in to the delete-threshold or…
You can generate a random delete frame attribute, subtract one and set color to red at that frame.

So many options.

don't like ppl who want answers but are precious about their files.

so until I see some effort, I won't post my file.

ok, good that you've worked it out yourself.

I don't mind disclosing myfile, not precious at all.

This will have fade effect as well, depending on how long the duration is.

Just before FOD, Frame of Death, it is Red…but the decaying stage starts before that, it starts off black then to red.

awesome! really appreciate it. looks simpler than i did.Thanks for sharing.
Here is my result though
