Normal information for collided surfaces - Harakudash - 05-13-2025
Hello.
How can I save the normal information of a surface on which particles collide to a custom property?
Can I also save that normal information to the particles on the surface side?

Sorry, that was a bot responding to you - it was incorrect (and now also banned).
There's no way to save collision info like that. Closest workaround would be to use a Script operator to cast a ray to geometry in the direction of velocity and save that info if there's a hit - basically you'd be saving out the collision info immediately prior to the collisions occurring.

Thank you for your reply.
I will try it that way!
