      Hi,
      I'm trying to create a granular effect on a 15x15 cloner grid made of 2x2 cm planes spaced 21 mm apart. I want the clones to move instantly to Y = 20000 as a Linear Field passes over them from left to right. However, I want the movement to be disordered and progressively delayed, not all clones jumping at once.

      For example, as the Linear Field touches the first column, only some of the clones should move to Y20000, and the others with some delay. When it touches the second column, some of the second and some of the first should move, and so on — creating a granular and organic transition.

      I tried using a Delay Effector, but when it is active, the Linear Field seems to stop working.
      I can't figure out where I'm going wrong. Any help would be appreciated!

      Thanks in advance,Test move.c4d
