Description
flash 8 requiredCLICK to add particle
RIGHT CLICK and select RESET to reset
Attraction Distance: How close two particles need to be to attract each other
Spring Amount : How much two particles attract each other when close enough
Line Width: Width of line between particles
Code is not 100% percent optimized so it might lag with high line widths and more than 30 or so particles

haha, well.. i guess i'll believe you
shame though, i was just thinking.. hmm, what would be a cool simple little interactive thing?
gawd, then i find out 3 days later its already been done!
haha, still.. it is pretty fantastic
nice job!

wooah dave this shit rocks. awsome stuff. i played with somik like this ages ago but i could only get the lines to appear. i couldnt get them to then move towards each other. tht is some very nice work.

that is by far the coolest.
unfortunately... my computer lags at about 75. but up 'til then, its craaazy.

Haha yea, unfortunately, the majority of people will have trouble handling around 30.
Im reluctant to limit the amount, but if you want to start over, simply right click and reset.
thanks for the comment dude. and the +Fav

First of all... this is totally sick. Congrats.
You may find that under this current configuration, optimisation is a real bear. you've got some of the new funky flash8 filters on this thing, and those hog up resources like a mofo. My best advice for an optimisation strategy, would be to eliminate line width (even though I love the effect), set a max limit for number of particles (which kinda blows, because the complicated ones are hot), ditch the convolution filter in lieu of some nice hex color math random script. it'll move right on dial up if you do that.
great work though.

Thanks for the comments. But unfortunately the line script is a some hex math to create the cool looking colors and eliminating that would enhance the performance but not too much. I will see what i can do for the optimization and thanks for the comment.
Glad you like.

I know. I wasn't exactly sure how you were doing that. In the past, I've seen some brave souls attempting that with a processor intensive approach via the convolution filter. If you're not doing that way, you're totally sickhouse. That's a good thing. I guess establisihing a high limit on points is the obvious approach. I have written a few recursive scripts that just slow a comp to a crawl past 8 iterations. it's a nasty debacle. Serious cool stuff though. Nice.

Im actually just uploading a new version where you can now right-click and reset the Particle Attraction back to just 2 particles

Thanks. I totally agree with the limiting the amount of points, i just have a problem limiting users on what they want to do.

i feel you on that one.
