      hi everyone,

      i was wondering how to set a speed limit for mograph-clones. i found the great python effector "speed to weight" (

      ). but as far as i see this one only reads the speed for each clone. i would like to give the clones some kind of a velocity threshold so they can't move faster than a given value. is there any way to do this with mograph via a python effector maybe?

      thanks for any help!

        Hello,

        it might be possible to create such a Python effector but personally I don't have much experience creating effectors. You might have to store the positions of each clone of the last frame and check the current position to get their speed and correct the speed by repositioning them. At least that's something I would try.

        Best wishes,
        Sebastian
