Hello signore Sassi
You are incredible! ANel is technically what I was looking for. I needed some time to understand what you did. I will not exclude this version. This solution is fast, gives a realistic visualization of the electron flow.
Now I have to work on this, to make a closed circuit with this b-spline (coming out of a cube(source)... passing the bottleneck ... and going back to the source on a parallel line, to close the circuit.
I expected a solution with thinking particles... but this blowed my mind.
I will keep you informed.
Grazie mille -
Thanks a lot for the feedback, Henri.
The first one uses short comping of splines and animation to its advantage, such that the distance between points is crucial for the speed.
The Force Field has a lot of potential, and adjusting the "force" along a spline is very powerful.
More about Force Field can be found on our team's many shows over on YouTube.
https://www.youtube.com/c/MaxonTrainingTeamLet me know if there is anything else. I have some time off (Holiday here), but, of course, I have an eye on the forum.
My best wishes for your project

reHello Dr. Sassi
I am using your CV4_2024_drs_23_ANel_01.c4d... now my problem: If I keyframe the velocity of the 'particles' (Cloner) to zero at frame 50, the particles will stop on frame 51... but first (at frame 25 (half of way)) they reverse direction
I could not find out, what to do, to avoid this. Please give me a hint, I am lost.PS
What I need: positive speed == particles move to the right / negative speed == particles move to the leftBest wishes

Hi Henri.
Would you mind trying this: (In the file CV4_2024_drs_23_ANel_01.c4d as delivered.)
Cloner> Object> Rate + and - values are possible.
All the best

hi again
yes I tried this... + goes right / - goes left... ok but if I want to keyframe the rate (in German version 'velocity') everything goes wrong. Please try to stop your particles at frame 50 with a keyframe rate 0...
the rate goes from +26 to 0 (all positive) but the particles revers
kind regards -
Hi Henri,
Try this one; it uses only the Offset (the Starting point for the Offset should be greater than zero, so the Offsett Variation can build up). No Rate.
All the best

you made my day!
