This daemon simulates external air drag forces that slow down particles.
RealFlow Scene
In RealFlow | Maya it is possible to use multiple "Scene" trees in the same project. To link a daemon to a different scene tree right-click on the field, choose "Set Scene", and select an item from the appearing list.
Linked Domains
All fluid, rigid, and elastic containers inside the 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.
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:
- “Square” applies a box at the daemon's centre.
- “Sphere” applies a sphere at the daemon's centre.
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 Maya'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.
