Hi everyone! trying out TYflow and had a quick question.
its regarding TIMING panel on many of the force operators.
basically what i was trying to achieve
1. birth particles 0f - 100f
2. from 50f, get a force to kick in (using the TIMING panel start frame : 50f), affecting ALL particles (even the once created before 50f)
however, when i run the simulation, particles that are birthed before 50f are not affected by the force.
just to clarify, i have birth, force all in a same event.
i was assuming the TIMING panel to be like trimming, where i can control when the forces become "activated".
so when the FORCE is activated on 50f, my assumption was that all the particles in scene (i have not set any filters or anything) will be affected by the FORCE, not just the particles created afterward?
of course i could leave the TIMING panel as is, and just animate the actual FORCE parameters, but just wanted to understand the mechanics better.
thanks in advance for any response!
