      Are there any examples of creating an effector plugin?
      I need something like C4D's built-in Python Effector set to Parameter Control mode.
      And for instance, I want to use position control option from Parameter tab, in order to move only the first object/clone.

        Hi Merk, thanks for writing us.

        With regard to your request, note that:

        1. Python API is not design to deliver an EffectorData plugin which means you can't natively design and implement an Effector plugin using Python;
        2. EffectorData class is currently only available on the C++ API and the NoiseEffector on GitHub represents an example of such type of plugin.

        If Python "IS" the way to go, then a valid solution is provided by the Python Effector. On our GitHub repository are available three example (script + scene) properly showing how to use the Python Effector:

        1. Push Apart Effector
        2. Py Effector
        3. Python Effector

        Best, Riccardo
