Kill Box Effector
Removes clones inside a region defined by the field block.
The Kill Box Effector deletes the clones its field covers.
- Its region is the shared Field block
- Found in the node graph under Cloners → Effectors
The image on the right is the example patch itself. Drag and drop it onto the app, or load it with File → Load, to open the full graph. The field turned on at its default sphere.
Inputs and outputs
| Port | Type | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Effectors In | Effector | The previous effector in the chain. |
| Field Image | Texture | A texture read by the Image field shape. |
| Origin Object | Surface | A Null to parent to. |
| Effectors Out | Effector | Wire into the next effector or a cloner's Effector port. |
Parameters
This effector has no controls of its own. Turn Field on and set Field Shape and Field Size; Invert Field kills everything outside instead.
Field and clamp
- Field (default off), Field Shape, Field Size, Falloff, Inner Radius, Invert Field, Field Follows Mouse, Image Channel, and the Field Position / Heading / Pitch / Roll / Scale block limit where the effector acts.
- Clamp (default off) with Max Offset (default 5), Max Rotation (default 180), Min Scale (default 0), Max Scale (default 4).
- Highlight Field and Highlight Color draw the field in the viewport.
Every slider has a per-parameter animation bar, so it can be animated, audio driven, or MIDI mapped.
Examples
Cut a hole — Field Shape Sphere in the middle of a grid.
Troubleshooting
The node appears to have no parameters. Its region is the field block. Turn Field on.
