Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

what function to stop nparticles intersecting other geometry?

hey guys,
im new to nparticles, i have a simple blood flow system going, and i have a sphere that has some simple keyframed movement on it, what do i use to stop the instanced red blood cell particles from going right through the sphere?
thanks
Nicky

Hey Nicky, I know you posted a while ago so assuming you figured it out, but if anyone else is having a similar problem you need to select your sphere and go to the nCloth dropdown menu -> Create Passive Collider. That should keep the particles from passing through and instead collide with your sphere.
