This daemon turns an attached object into an attractor, pulling the particles towards its faces. “Magic” is only available for use with particles. A useful trick is to use a → "Drag Force" daemon combined with the "Magic" daemon to obtain faster convergence of the particles around the object and avoid orbiting effects.
Affect
With “Force” it takes a little time to display the daemon's full influence and the result is a curved stream of particles. “Velocity” directly affects the particles from the very beginning without any delay or acceleration, and you will get a linear particle streamThere are two options:
- "Force" accelerates the particles and they become faster and faster as long as the force is acting on them.
- “Velocity” only works with particles and adds the daemon's "Strength" value to a particle's speed. The resulting peak velocity remains constant during the simulation.
An example: Let's assume the daemon's "Strength" is 9.8 and the emitter's "Speed" value is 2.0. Here, a particle's velocity will be roughly 11.8 m/s.
Object
You can select a single object from the node browser and the particles will finally adopt the shape of the chosen item.
