Hi! I ran into a problem while discovering melting when I havent figured out how to make statue to be a static object. The statue just fall under the influence of gravity, and I dont know how to turn off the gravity force for statue, but keep it for a melting part. Can you help me?)

What you could do is to group the particles that have a higher value of your melting attribute (likely temperature). So you end up with a group that is actively melting. Pipe those into a split note, and split by group. The particles that are not actively melting come out of the other output. You can then use a VDB from particles node to make an approximate mesh and use that as a staticobject in your sim. For collisions you can actually use the generates SDF directly by putting the collision method on volume sample, and referencing it in the proxy volume parameter. Hope this helps
