How about 10 particle bomber?
Five is too few. With ten the effects are more realistic. To bit or not to bit |

For a temporary solution, you can have the illusion of more than 5 by having a particle slot represent multiple pictures. You'll notice some games do it for rain; they'll have a particle system generate rain, but instead of calculating each rain drop, they have the rain particle actually be a cluster, or even whole swathe of multiple droplets in the same image.

uhm, how do you get a particle slot to represent multiple pictures?

You can either plug in a very basic bomber into it, or use some chaos tiles, anything to generate more than one instance of an object to the output, then use it as an input.

Thank you, Betis, but I do that already.
The problem is only five shapes in a image can be bombered. The five shapes change in the next image, but is a little poor. If I merge two bombers the effect is not the same. Sorry my bad english. I have the obsolete operative system in my ciborg brain. (Windows of course, but is the only standard for ciborgs) To bit or not to bit |

Hmmm, I know what you mean. My way won't work in every situation, but it is an occasional workaround.

thanks, betis. i've used the double bomber but it really slows things down and like deskar said, it often changes things too much. multiple image input... we need multiple image input

When we have the infrastructure for polymorphic components, the Bomber will get an adjustable number of Particle inputs, and the HDR and LDR versions will be merged into a single component.

You mean the polymorphic stuff? No, that's not what we plan for Stage 3. Polymorphics aren't a new feature per se, it's just an infrastructural subsystem used by other components, and we wouldn't dedicate an entire beta stage to it. |
