mP_Force - superclass: helper; super-superclass:node - 11:0 - classID: #(1935830278, 515064320)

Description:

The mP_Force operator accepts any force-type particle space warp as a force source. The force is applied to all particles in the current event that are affected by an mP_World operator.

Available in 3ds Max 2014 and higher.

Constructors:

mP_Force...
PhysXForce...

Properties:

Parameters rollout

Get/set the value of the Time Warp spinner.

When the "Use Script Wiring" option is checked in the context menu of the mP_Force operator, or set via the .setUseScriptWiring() method in Interface: action, an additional rollout becomes available.

Script Wiring rollout (optional)

<mP_Force>.Use_Script_Float     Integer    default: 0   --  integer

Get/set the state of the Influence Parameter Wiring radio buttons.

Possible values are:
