thats not quite what im after.
an example.. (probably achievable in other ways but still)
i have particles with a radius assigned, and use the "variation" spinner to get different sizes. using those two controls however i can only get an even distribution of sizes within that range..
if i had another button which opened a range graph, i could draw a curve starting flat, with a sharp dip at the end.. this would mean the majority of particles would be smaller, with many less of the larger sizes.. the larger, the less probable. this is a simple example, the curve could have more than one peak.
this can be applied to velocities, scales, particle counts, forces etc etc..
basically if you have ever used forestpack, it uses this system, and its very powerful.
