VDB Differential Growth with collisions ? - Gregory - 10-08-2023

What would be the correct way to create a VDB differential growth, but within a confined space?

That is, a regular VDB differential growth that happens amongst other objects, with proper collisions with those objects as the VDB grows and expands.
Any suggestions, ideas, scene files or example perhaps ?

Thanks,
Greg

Anyone?
Tyson?
Maybe this is not possible perhaps?

An Object to SDF operator, set to subtract (and timing set to continuous), can be used to clip differential growths, essentially acting as a collider.

Oh... Right...
Simple and elegant; didn't think of that!
Will give it a try!

Thanks a mil, Tyson!
