Filter by Particle IDs

 
 
 

When a particle is born, it has its own unique identification number (ID attribute) that stays unique throughout the simulation. This compound reduces the number of particles that are emitted based on the particle's ID attribute. Particles are emitted only where their ID matches what's defined in this compound.

Plug this compound's Execute on Emit output into an Execute on Emit port of the Emit compound.

For more information on IDs, see Working with IDs and Indices [ICE Guide].

Tasks: Particles/Emission Control

Output Ports: Execute_on_Emit

Invert

Inverts the particle emission so that particles are emitted only if they don't match the Particle IDs that are defined in this compound.

Particle ID

The particle ID attribute that acts as the filter. Enter the ID value you want to use.

To add more Particle ID ports, right-click on a port on the compound and choose Insert Port After. You can do this for as many Particle ID ports as you need.
