Day 31 The Dawn of Age

Explaining to Mr Ron about my progress for the past 2 weeks, I show him the water gushing system. I told him that I wanted to achieve the curl of the water stream. With his help, a simple test was done. Using source from geometry to emit particles from, wind and force was added for direction. A bounding box group was created to group the core of the stream and the outside was left expose to attractor to twirl with. A SOP network was use for copy stamping various sizes of metaballs to be the attractor. So while the middle parts stay the same stream movment, the outside which not group under the bounding box have a twirling movment.
