particle_modifier

ParticleApplier

Bases: ParticleModifier

ParticleModifier where the modification results in potentially adding particles into the simulation.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
obj StatefulObject

Object to which this state will be applied

required
conditions dict

Dictionary mapping the names of ParticleSystem (str) to None or list of 2-tuples, where None represents "never", empty list represents "always", or each 2-tuple is interpreted as a single condition in the form of (ParticleModifyCondition, value) necessary in order for this particle modifier to be able to modify particles belonging to @ParticleSystem. Expected types of val are as follows:

SATURATED: string name of the desired system that this modifier must be saturated by, e.g., "water" TOGGLEDON: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be toggled on or not GRAVITY: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be pointing downwards (T) or upwards (F) FUNCTION: a function, whose signature is as follows:

def condition(obj) --> bool

Where @obj is the specific object that this ParticleModifier state belongs to.

For a given ParticleSystem, the list of 2-tuples will be converted into a list of function calls of the form above -- if all of its conditions evaluate to True and particles are detected within this particle modifier area, then we potentially modify those particles

required
method ParticleModifyMethod

Method to modify particles. Current options supported are ADJACENCY (i.e.: "touching" particles) or PROJECTION (i.e.: "spraying" particles)

ADJACENCY
projection_mesh_params None or dict

If specified and @method is ParticleModifyMethod.PROJECTION, manually overrides any data inferred directly from this object to infer what projection volume to generate for this particle modifier. Expected entries are as follows:

"type": (str), one of {"Cylinder", "Cone", "Cube", "Sphere"}
"extents": (3-array), the (x,y,z) extents of the generated volume (specified in local link frame!)

If None, information found from @obj.metadata will be used instead.

None
sample_with_raycast bool

If True, will only sample particles at raycast hits. Otherwise, will bypass sampling and immediately sample particles at the sampled particle locations. Note that this will only work for PhysicalParticleSystem-based ParticleAppliers that use the Projection method!

True
initial_speed float

For physical particles, the initial speed for generated particles. Note that the direction of the velocity is inferred from the particle sampling process.

Returns:

Name Type Description
bool

Whether this Applier should be visualized or not

ParticleModifier

Bases: IntrinsicObjectState, LinkBasedStateMixin, UpdateStateMixin

Object state representing an object that has the ability to modify visual and / or physical particles within the active simulation.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
obj StatefulObject

Object to which this state will be applied

required
conditions dict

Dictionary mapping the names of ParticleSystem (str) to None or list of 2-tuples, where None represents "never", empty list represents "always", or each 2-tuple is interpreted as a single condition in the form of (ParticleModifyCondition, value) necessary in order for this particle modifier to be able to modify particles belonging to @ParticleSystem. Expected types of val are as follows:

SATURATED: string name of the desired system that this modifier must be saturated by, e.g., "water" TOGGLEDON: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be toggled on or not GRAVITY: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be pointing downwards (T) or upwards (F) FUNCTION: a function, whose signature is as follows:

def condition(obj) --> bool

Where @obj is the specific object that this ParticleModifier state belongs to.

For a given ParticleSystem, the list of 2-tuples will be converted into a list of function calls of the form above -- if all of its conditions evaluate to True and particles are detected within this particle modifier area, then we potentially modify those particles

required
method ParticleModifyMethod

Method to modify particles. Current options supported are ADJACENCY (i.e.: "touching" particles) or PROJECTION (i.e.: "spraying" particles)

ADJACENCY
projection_mesh_params None or dict

If specified and @method is ParticleModifyMethod.PROJECTION, manually overrides any data inferred directly from this object to infer what projection volume to generate for this particle modifier. Expected entries are as follows:

"type": (str), one of {"Cylinder", "Cone", "Cube", "Sphere"}
"extents": (3-array), the (x,y,z) extents of the generated volume (specified in local link frame!)

If None, information found from @obj.metadata will be used instead. NOTE: x-direction should align with the projection mesh's height (i.e.: z) parameter in @extents!

            None represents "never", empty list represents "always", or each 2-tuple is interpreted as a single condition in the form of
            (ParticleModifyCondition, value) necessary in order for this particle modifier to be
            able to modify particles belonging to @ParticleSystem. Expected types of val are as follows:

            SATURATED: string name of the desired system that this modifier must be saturated by, e.g., "water"
            TOGGLEDON: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be toggled on or not
            GRAVITY: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be pointing downwards (T) or upwards (F)

            form above -- if all of its conditions evaluate to True and particles are detected within
            this particle modifier area, then we potentially modify those particles
        method (ParticleModifyMethod): Method to modify particles. Current options supported are ADJACENCY (i.e.:
            "touching" particles) or PROJECTION (i.e.: "spraying" particles)
        projection_mesh_params (None or dict): If specified and @method is ParticleModifyMethod.PROJECTION,
            manually overrides any data inferred directly from this object to infer what projection volume to generate
            for this particle modifier. Expected entries are as follows:

                "type": (str), one of {"Cylinder", "Cone", "Cube", "Sphere"}
                "extents": (3-array), the (x,y,z) extents of the generated volume (specified in local link frame!)

            If None, information found from @obj.metadata will be used instead.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
obj StatefulObject

Object to which this state will be applied

required
conditions dict

Dictionary mapping the names of ParticleSystem (str) to None or list of 2-tuples, where None represents "never", empty list represents "always", or each 2-tuple is interpreted as a single condition in the form of (ParticleModifyCondition, value) necessary in order for this particle modifier to be able to modify particles belonging to @ParticleSystem. Expected types of val are as follows:

SATURATED: string name of the desired system that this modifier must be saturated by, e.g., "water" TOGGLEDON: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be toggled on or not GRAVITY: boolean T/F; whether this modifier must be pointing downwards (T) or upwards (F) FUNCTION: a function, whose signature is as follows:

Where @obj is the specific object that this ParticleModifier state belongs to.

For a given ParticleSystem, the list of 2-tuples will be converted into a list of function calls of the form above -- if all of its conditions evaluate to True and particles are detected within this particle modifier area, then we potentially modify those particles

required
method ParticleModifyMethod

Method to modify particles. Current options supported are ADJACENCY (i.e.: "touching" particles) or PROJECTION (i.e.: "spraying" particles)

ADJACENCY
projection_mesh_params None or dict

If specified and @method is ParticleModifyMethod.PROJECTION, manually overrides any data inferred directly from this object to infer what projection volume to generate for this particle modifier. Expected entries are as follows:

"type": (str), one of {"Cylinder", "Cone", "Cube", "Sphere"}
"extents": (3-array), the (x,y,z) extents of the generated volume (specified in local link frame!)

If None, information found from @obj.metadata will be used instead. NOTE: x-direction should align with the projection mesh's height (i.e.: z) parameter in @extents!

None
default_fluid_conditions None or list

Condition(s) needed to remove any fluid particles not explicitly specified in @conditions. If None, then it is assumed that no other physical particles can be removed. If not None, should be in same format as an entry in @conditions, i.e.: list of (ParticleModifyCondition, val) 2-tuples

None

            FUNCTION: a function, whose signature is as follows:

                def condition(obj) --> bool

                Where @obj is the specific object that this ParticleModifier state belongs to.

            For a given ParticleSystem, the list of 2-tuples will be converted into a list of function calls of the
            form above -- if all of its conditions evaluate to True and particles are detected within
            this particle modifier area, then we potentially modify those particles
        method (ParticleModifyMethod): Method to modify particles. Current options supported are ADJACENCY (i.e.:
            "touching" particles) or PROJECTION (i.e.: "spraying" particles)
        projection_mesh_params (None or dict): If specified and @method is ParticleModifyMethod.PROJECTION,
            manually overrides any data inferred directly from this object to infer what projection volume to generate
            for this particle modifier. Expected entries are as follows:

                "type": (str), one of {"Cylinder", "Cone", "Cube", "Sphere"}
                "extents": (3-array), the (x,y,z) extents of the generated volume (specified in local link frame!)

            If None, information found from @obj.metadata will be used instead.
            NOTE: x-direction should align with the projection mesh's height (i.e.: z) parameter in @extents!
        default_fluid_conditions (None or list): Condition(s) needed to remove any fluid particles not explicitly
            specified in @conditions. If None, then it is assumed that no other physical particles can be removed. If
            not None, should be in same format as an entry in @conditions, i.e.: list of (ParticleModifyCondition, val)
            2-tuples
        default_non_fluid_conditions (None or list): Condition(s) needed to remove any physical (excluding fluid)
            particles not explicitly specified in @conditions. If None, then it is assumed that no other physical
            particles can be removed. If not None, should be in same format as an entry in @conditions, i.e.: list of
            (ParticleModifyCondition, val) 2-tuples
        default_visual_conditions (None or list): Condition(s) needed to remove any visual particles not explicitly
            specified in @conditions. If None, then it is assumed that no other visual particles can be removed. If
            not None, should be in same format as an entry in @conditions, i.e.: list of (ParticleModifyCondition, val)
