Hey everyone!
I am currently experimenting with the space colonization feature and its been pretty awesome so far! I am trying to make some coral effects that look like this.

The difficulty i am having is that the secondary particles that control where the branch grows to can only be used by a single branch. If i spawn multiple points that the branches grow from, they will never connect with each other. They will also not cross branch within its own growth pattern.
Does anyone know of a way to make it create more child sub branches that will grow and connect to each other? I didn't see any options in the growth setting to allow the secondary "location" particle be be used multiple times. Perhaps some options for child branches in the space colonization settings might be useful? The ability to specify how many times a branch is allowed to connect to these location particles?
Perhaps I am approaching this in the wrong way and there maybe be a better solution that you guys know of? Any insight would be very helpful.
Thanks!
