This daemon can be used to delete particles, limit the particles' velocity, relax fluids, or split particles to create spray effects.

Please take a look at the → “Calm Fluid Surfaces” tutorial to learn how to use this daemon.

 

 

Min speed

Particles with velocities lower than this value will be deleted. If “Limit & Keep” is activated a particle’s velocity will be limited to the entered value, but not be removed. The unit is metres per second.

Max Speed

All particles with velocities above this limit will be removed. If “Limit & Keep” is activated a particle’s velocity will be limited to the entered value, but not be removed. The unit is metres per second.

Limit & Keep

With this option, particles will not be removed, but kept and their velocities are limited to “Min | Max speed”.

Split

Instead of deleting the particles you can also force the daemon to create more particles at a certain life value. The amount of split particles is specified under “@ # child”.

@ # child

Here you can define the number of child particles to be created if “Split” is set to “Yes”.

Bounded

The bounding sphere is displayed in the viewport as three circles. The circles' dimensions can be changed individually with the “Scale” parameter under → “Node” or the R key.
