bullet likes pieces between 0.1 and 100

in x,y,z

if you need smaller pieces, scale up and boost gravity proportionally

oh one other aspect, do your noise lookup on the surface, so use VDB Analysis to make a Closest Point field that you use for noise lookup

this is the basic idea

it’s also helpful to use curvature to modulate it when applying multiple times

Been working on my flocking setup. Could use some optimization and features like predators, obstacles, and more randomized movement, but is a good start for anyone wanting to mess with flocking sims in VEX.

@bhenriksson , I can see this feedback loop working indeed, thanks a lot for the suggestion !

So the forloop with feedback works really well, I just had add a little bit of jittering to help the uvlayout packing algorithm.

Hi Luiz, here’s my procedure :
A) I create a collection of N rooms, integer sized (1-4 unit long, 2-4 unit large) and I uv-pack them together (uv layout). B) Boolean / convertline the result, so I have unique polyline primitives between all the points. C) I create this red inside polyline structures D) Intersectionanalysis between the red and the black lines, so I can delete every red lines that touch nothing … E) and also keep only one red primitive primitive, randomly, for every black wall line. F) polyexpand the red line G) boolean subtract with the black wall.
The Game Jam version was slightly more complex because I also added a corridor in the mix, but the idea is the same.
