Force

Menu Path : Force > Force

The Force Block applies the given force to particles. To do this, it changes the affected particles’ velocity.

Block compatibility

This Block is compatible with the following Contexts:

Setting	Type	Description
Mode	Enum	The method this Block uses to apply a force to particles. The options are: • Absolute: Applies the force directly to the particles. • Relative: Applies the force in a way that causes the particles' velocity to tend towards the Velocity value. The speed at which they do this depends on the difference between the particles' velocity and the target Velocity. This transition is faster with a higher Drag value and a lower particle mass. This option is useful to simulate a flow, like wind, that particles follow without ever exceeding the target velocity.

Input	Type	Description
Force	Vector	The force vector this Block applies to particles. This property only appears if you set Mode to Absolute.
Velocity	Vector	The relative velocity that affected particles tend towards. This property only appears if you set Mode to Relative.
Drag	float	The drag coefficient. This property only appears if you set Mode to Relative.

This Block only affects the particle position if you enable the Update Position setting in the Update Context.
