Using MAXScript with Particle Flow
MAXScript can be used with Particle Flow for the following tasks:
-
Creating new instances of exposed Particle Flow classes. See Particle Flow Classes for a list of all exposed classes.
-
Accessing properties and methods of existing Particle Flow objects (Sources, Events, Operators, Tests etc.), either created by the user via the UI or by MAXScript.
-
Controlling values in the Integer, Float, Vector etc. channels supported by Particle Flow. Certain Particle Flow actions have built-in options to access these channels to control some of their properties.
-
Updating particle values in the PF_Source using the Every Step Update and Final Step Update scripts.
-
Controlling particle creation using the Birth_Script action.
-
Creating custom Particle Flow operators using the Script_Operator action.
-
Creating custom tests using the Script_Test action.
-
Low-level access to the Particle Flow system components using their Interfaces’ Properties and Methods.
