Amazing. Could you do a waterfall with lots of tiny particles? I'd really
like to see something like that. :)

Question: have you been able to code a "filling" algorithm? So you could
pour particles into a container and have the level of the liquid rise
proportionately?

This is from an FAQ that comes with my particle system documentation:
Can I get the particles to interact with each other?
No. This particle system does not support particle interaction. It would
be very difficult to implement in a satisfying way in a system aimed at
so different uses as this system is. Particle interaction is better
suited for more specialized systems that are aimed at specific goals,
like for example simulating liquids. Besides, particle interaction would
not be compatible with all features of this particle system, such as
cyclic animation.

Depending on your definition of "tiny", yes I could do that... :)
You could also do it yourself if you want to be a beta tester of the
system...

Hehe, this is from an FAQ I wrote which is included in the documentation
for the particle system:
Why can't I fill an object with particles, for example a glass of water?
See the next question.
Can I get the particles to interact with each other?
No. This particle system does not support particle interaction. It would
be very difficult to implement in a satisfying way in a system aimed at
so different uses as this system is. Particle interaction is better
suited for more specialized systems that are aimed at specific goals,
like for example simulating liquids. Besides, particle interaction would
not be compatible with all features of this particle system, such as

Interesting? Yes.
But it would require a very high amount of particles, of which some
won't even make a difference.
Still, I may try it out sometime... :)

Of course. You have mentioned multiple times that you don't want to
include inter particle forces in your system, but as you also said this
would be quite essential for simulating liquids.
BTW, adhesion could be modelled without interacting particles, maybe it's
worth trying.

As much as I would love to do that, I just don't have the time any more,
buddy. :( I haven't poved in quite a while... :_(

Aw. :( Too bad. I was thinking of something "simple" like keeping each
particle outside of the radius of other particles. That should do the
trick... but I guess it would be slow.
