add force field modifier to affect geometry vertices based of force fields

It would be nice to add force field modifier to affect geometry vertices based of force fields check mockup, the use can press the add force field button to add a force field to the force field modifier forces list or stack. the eye icon being for enabling or disabling the force field, th slider being the the percentage of influence of the force field, the force field should correspond to the force field that was added.

these force field to affect the shape of the geometry and should be animatable.

contributions are welcome

So.... soft body/cloth modifer?

* @Josephbburg * not realy that IS geometry modifier based on force fields

Josephbburg

* @mittisimone * Exactly. Isn't that what you're asking for?

mittisimone Author

* @Josephbburg * yes it is

Josephbburg

* @mittisimone * So why make a proposal for something that already exists (and for that matter, is in active development)?

mittisimone Author

* @Josephbburg * who is developing it. That shared mockup image. I didn't know that it is in development.

* @mittisimone * They just added pressure to the cloth sim. And one of the Google Summer of Code projects was dynamic remeshing for Cloth Sim (still not finished for master-- it worked but it wasn't baking). And anyways, the MantaFlow developer was hired on fulltime as the physics developer. So when Mantaflow is integrated and feature-complete, he'll start working on other physics stuff.

Finally, Everything Nodes will be able to do a lot of what you want. And I think they're trying to make all of the physics systems use the same unified solver (like Nucleus in Maya).
