Stopping nParticle expression

[ontaious]

Hello,

I was hoping I could get some insight on how I could stop an expression that I started at runtime before dynamics.

The code currently sends the nParticle into a spin:

nParticleShape3.userVector2PP +=<>;

I would like to stop this expression from running at a certain time frame. So far every thing I've tried doesn't seem to affect it. Any help would be appreciated.

if (frame < 10){
  nParticleShape3.userVector2PP +=<>;
}

Ugh, this entire time all I was missing were the brackets. I had been doing that very same code you put in, but didn't have the open and close. Dur.  Thanks for the reply Joojaa!

Hrm, seems my idea of how to do this didn't work. Maybe you can help me out.

I currently have setup an nParticle system, where a shower of coins fall (spinning) and land inside of a bowl. I want them to be able to settle and stop. How would that be possible to do?

Right now I'm using the nParticleShape3.userVector2PP to set them into a spin. When I try and stop them, they don't inherit their last position. Is this possible? Thanks.
