Daemons : Filter Expressions

The → "Filter" daemon in RealFlow | Cinema 4D allows you to define simple comparisons and conditions, so-called expressions, in order to transfer particles between fluid containers.

Let's assume you want to filter the particles from “Fluid_A” against their velocities. If a particle' speed is lower than 2.0 the particle should be transferred to “Fluid_B”:

Target > Fluid_A
Source > Fluid_B
Condition > Expression
Under “Expression” enter: particle.speed < 2.0

You can use any other keywords from the table and modify the expression to your needs. It is also possible to combine expressions, e.g.

if particle.age > particle.velocity
