@Dr-Sassi Unchecking "Use Deform Point" fixed the issue. Thanks very much for your assistance

when using a spherical field as a mask for the explosion, I'm getting unusual results. When the pieces of exploded cloth approach the edge of the spherical field, they kinda "snap* back toward the center, like it's colliding with the spherical field. I can't get a nice natural fall to the floor.

I've messed with numerous settings including the spherical field size and parameters, my simulation substeps/collision passes...can't seem to fix it.
