Part X: Dynamic Animation
For each of the Damping shape types—Linear, Spherical, and Cylindrical—you can set the drag, which can be
along each axis for the Linear shape or in the Radial, Tangential, and Axial direction for the Spherical and
Cylindrical shapes. If the Unlimited Range option is not selected, then the Range and Falloff values are available.
Figure 42.5 shows a Drag Space Warp surrounding a particle system. Notice how the particles are slowed
and moved to the side as they pass through the Drag space warp.
FIGURE 42.5
You can use the Drag Space Warp to slow the velocity of particles.

PBomb
The PBomb (particle bomb) Space Warp was designed specifically for the PArray particle system, but it can
be used with any particle system. To blow up an object with the PBomb Space Warp, create an object, make
it a PArray emitter, and then bind the PBomb Space Warp to the PArray.

Cross-Ref
You can find more information on the PArray particle system in Chapter 41, “Creating Particles and Particle Flow.” n

Basic parameters for this Space Warp include three blast symmetry types: Spherical, Cylindrical, and Planar.
You can also set the Chaos value as a percentage.
In the Explosion Parameters section, the Start Time is the frame where the explosion takes place, and the
Duration defines how long the explosion forces are applied. The Strength value is the power of the explosion.
