Hello I am running into a bit of trouble with my programming
I have a bunch of particles that I want to follow a certain path from Y1 to Y35. The particles can appear anywhere between X -7 and X 7 , at Y 1 and then travel up the Y axis. I am trying to get all the particles to converge at a single point on the x and Y axis. Once the particles go beyond Y36 they disappear
I cant seem to get my finger on exactly how to calculate this. The variables I have to work with are
Current Y Coord = Y
Current X Coord = X
Origin X Coord = T
The curved lines are how I want the particles to travel in the end.
The best that I have come up with is
Y = Y
X = T + (Y * Y / 280)
But this does not achieve the desired results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
