+--- Thread: Align spawned particles to parent surface? (/thread-175.html)
Align spawned particles to parent surface? - mitchfx - 04-06-2019
I'm looking for a way to align spawned particles so their Z is facing along the parent's surface normals. This would make it easy to have spawned particles move away from the emitting surface using a Speed(ParticleZ) operator, or to align shapes like hair or grass correctly before binding. Maybe I'm overlooking something simple here?

For general surface alignment, you can use a rotation operator in "surface align" mode.
To align spawned particles to their parent particle, that isn't added yet, but it's on the roadmap
