Hi all,

I need to spray particles to to the inside of a cylindrical surface in a helix shape.

The spray nozzle would be the shape of a helix--spraying the particles like spray paint gradually building on the inside of the tube.

I don't need the spray to follow the helix, but spray from the entire length of the helix.

Ideally, each point would be a hypervoxel.

Any ideas? Thanks.

hope this is what you want (and it helps).
Maybe you have to set the collision object type back to "Stick".
