Particle Goal1) OVERVIEW PARTICLE GOAL
1.1) Goal ?
PARTICLE GOAL
Working with Particle Goal ( A goal is an object that particles follow or move towards. Youcan use goals to give trailing particles a flowing motion that’s hard to generate with otheranimation techniques. The trailing particles move as if connected to the goal by invisiblesprings. In the context of goals, soft bodies are considered particles ).
1.2) What is Particle Goal ?
PARTICLE GOAL
Particle objects are useful as goal objects because of the many techniques available foranimating particle motion. You can’t add a goal to individual particles of the particle object,but you can control how influential each particle is on the trailing object.
If the goal is a particle object, its particles attract the particles of the trailing object one forone as the animation plays. If particles in the objects do not die, the trailing particles followgoal particles based on the creation order.
If particles in either object die, the preceding scheme no longer applies. You can no longervisually predict which trailing particle will follow a particular goal particle.
If the trailing particle object has more particles than the goal object and particles don’t die ineither object, the extra particles follow the first-created particles of the goal.
For instance, suppose you create a goal object with twoparticles and a trailing object with four particles. The fourparticles would move toward the two particles like this:
1.3) What is Multiple goals ?
PARTICLE GOAL
You can use more than one goal object to affect a particle object. For each goalobject, the trailing particle object has a goal weight that sets the relative weightingof the attraction. If the goal weights are the same, each goal object attracts thetrailing object with equal strength. The trailing object moves to a position betweenthe two goal objects, typically oscillating back and forth before coming toequilibrium.
If the goal weights differ, each goal object attracts the trailing object with differentstrength. The trailing object comes to rest at a position closer to the goal with thehigher goal weight.

1.5) Create a Particle Goal.PARTICLE GOAL
Step 1:o Select the particle object you want to be affected by the goal.o To select a soft body rather than a conventional particle object, you can
select the soft body’s original geometry or its child particle object. Step 2: Shift-select the object you want to become the goal. Step 3: Select Particles > Goal. Step 4: To adjust the goal’s influence, see Edit goal attributes. Step 5: Play the animation to see the particles move towards the goal.

1.5) Create a Particle Goal.PARTICLE GOAL
Goal Weight:o The goal weight sets how much all particles of the trailing object are
attracted to the goal.o You can set goal weight to a value between 0 and 1. A value of 0 means
that the goal’s position has no effect on the trailing particles. A value of1 moves the trailing particles to the goal object position immediately.
Use Transform as Goal:o Makes particles follow the object’s transform rather than its particles,
CVs, vertices, or lattice points.
