This daemon simulates external air drag forces that slow down particles.



RealFlow Scene

In RealFlow | Cinema 4D it is possible to use multiple "Scene" trees in the same project. To link a daemon to a different scene tree drag the appropriate "Scene" node to this field.

...

All fluid, rigid, and elastic containers inside the drag-and-drop field will be affected by the daemon. If there is only one container in the scene it will be linked automatically. Otherwise the connection has to be established manually.

Drag strength

This values typically ranges between 0 and 1, but can also accept higher settings. High settings can force particles and bodies to stop completely. With high values we recommend to use a bounded daemon.

Shield Effect

With “Yes” it is possible to create a shield-like effect, similar to high air-resistance, where the leading particles are decelerated.

Shield Inverse

Instead of slowing down the leading particles, they are accelerated when the option is set to “Yes”.

Force Limit

This setting accepts any positive or negative value and is used to restrict the daemon's maximum strength.

Bounded

You can choose from these two types:

...

Both options unlock the daemon’s ability to create an attenuated force field. You can also change the shape’s size with the "Object" parameters or Cinema 4D's scale tools and parameters.

Attenuation

This option create a fall-off depending on the distance to the force’s origin. You can choose from “Linear”, “Square” and “Cubic”, while “Cubic” creates the fastest fall-off.
