Hey guys,

I know this topic has been broached several times on various forums..and the answer usually points the user to jozvex's great tutorial. However, I cannot get this to work. I have cubes flowing along a path with the particles instanced to a cube.
I've applied the radial field to the but whatever I do to the settings the particles (cubes) still collide.
This is only a test file attached as about to start the final file soon but just wondering if anyone could have a quick look and tell me what I'm doing wrong...

Thanks for your time!

In your runtime expressions you have set goalPP to be 1. A goal, when as absolute as 1, will override a field.
Try going for a lower goalPP, like 0.4 maybe. However this could lead to some other behaviour you might not want... Anyway, for starters give it a try.

nice one mate - that certainly helped..loads in fact and maybe enough for my purposes.. although hasnt cured it completely. Is this method just not 100% accurate?
