RFE: Field POP spatial derivatives with respect to distance

POPs
1

Hi there,

I was wondering if it’s possible to include the spatial derivatives of the SDF distance. This is quite useful for directing particle towards or away from the fields. A hack I’m doing now is using 4 of the same fieldPOPs and move the slightly to form a simplex to calculate these derivatives. See attachment.

Cheers,
Tim

Hello @timgerritsen
Thank you for sharing this example. I’ve added the RFE to our backlog. We will evaluate the best way to implement this and discuss it with our team.

Thanks Tim! I think you mean POP so took the liberty of editing the subject
