Description


Constant

0

As long as the Particle's distance from the Magnet is between the Min and Max Distance of the Magnet, the Max Force will be applied to the Particle.

Function Logic: y = 1, where y is the normalized Force applied and 1 is the Particle's normalized distance between the Magnet's Min and Max Distances.


Linear

1

The Force applied to the Particle will be Linearly interpolated from zero to Max Force based on the Particle's distance from the Magnet between the Magnet's Min and Max Distances. So when the Particle is at the Min Distance from the Magnet no force will be applied, when the Particle is at half of the Max Distance from the Magnet 1/2 of the Max Force will be applied, and when the Particle is at the Max Distance from the Magnet the Max Force will be applied to the Particle.

Function Logic: y = x, where y is the normalized Force applied and x is the Particle's normalized distance between the Magnet's Min and Max Distances.


Squared

2

The Force applied to the Particle will be Squared interpolated from zero to Max Force based on the Particle's distance from the Magnet between the Magnet's Min and Max Distances. So when the Particle is at the Min Distance from the Magnet no force will be applied, when the Particle is at half of the Max Distance from the Magnet 1/4 of the Max Force will be applied, and when the Particle is at the Max Distance from the Magnet the Max Force will be applied to the Particle.

Function Logic: y = x * x, where y is the normalized Force applied and x is the Particle's normalized distance between the Magnet's Min and Max Distances.


Cubed

3

The Force applied to the Particle will be Cubed interpolated from zero to Max Force based on the Particle's distance from the Magnet between the Magnet's Min and Max Distances. So when the Particle is at the Min Distance from the Magnet no force will be applied, when the Particle is at half of the Max Distance from the Magnet 1/8 of the Max Force will be applied, and when the Particle is at the Max Distance from the Magnet the Max Force will be applied to the Particle.

Function Logic: y = x * x * x, where y is the normalized Force applied and x is the Particle's normalized distance between the Magnet's Min and Max Distances.


LinearInverse

4

The Inverse of the Linear function. That is, when the Particle is at the Min Distance from the Magnet the Max Force will be applied, when the Particle is at half of the Max Distance from the Magnet 1/2 of the Max Force will be applied, and when the Particle is at the Max Distance from the Magnet no force will be applied to the Particle.


SquaredInverse

5

The Inverse of the Squared function. That is, when the Particle is at the Min Distance from the Magnet the Max Force will be applied, when the Particle is at half of the Max Distance from the Magnet 1/4 of the Max Force will be applied, and when the Particle is at the Max Distance from the Magnet no force will be applied to the Particle.


CubedInverse

6

The Inverse of the Cubed function. That is, when the Particle is at the Min Distance from the Magnet the Max Force will be applied, when the Particle is at half of the Max Distance from the Magnet 1/8 of the Max Force will be applied, and when the Particle is at the Max Distance from the Magnet no force will be applied to the Particle.
