Creating and Applying a Force to a Particle Cloud
1. Start by getting a pointer to the particle cloud.
CreateParticleCloud( "", "Grid" ); var pcloud = ActiveSceneRoot.FindChild( "", siCloudPrimType );
2. Add a force to the scene using the CreateForce command:
// Set up a fan on a jaunty angle
var f = CreateForce( "Fan", pcloud );
f.posx = -4; f.posy = -1; f.rotz = 37;3. Apply the force to the particle cloud using the AddParticleForce command:
AddParticleForce( pcloud, f );
A proxy for the force now appears nested under the particle operator in the scene explorer:

![]()

You can access the force nested under the particle operator by checking for the force’s type among the particle operator’s children. For more information, see Accessing the Emitter Property. |
