  Parsing-Intensive Furball

What you see are 250 strands of hair.

The base-positions for these were generated using
the electrostatic-repulsion algorithm I implemented
some days ago.

Each hair uses 15 nodes, which are connected with
springs. Calculating the forces, gravity, hair-strength
etc required approximately 25*50=1250 iterations
to get to this state.

The calculation for this kind of furball is only worth it
if hair has to lie on the floor and needs to stay
out of other objects, otherwise the faster and simpler
algorithm I used in former images is sufficient...

Comments?
