Horror Vacui - Pure Geometry Nodes "Universal Attractor" setup

A pure Geometry Nodes setup of a "UNIVERSAL ATTRACTOR" effect. A custom "attractor" object is moved around manually and pulls in the distributed points by moving them along their respective vectors. A "gravity" effect is added.

You can, of course, instance anything on the points.

The attractive "vacuum" strength and distance is customizable. The whole setup is completely procedural.

The setup is fast and can be used for variety of effects from black holes to, in this case, a vacuum cleaner.

(The video demos are purely demonstrational - focusing on the concept of attracting and deleting "particles". The node tree is kept clean and simple as possible for easier readability. The nodes are not contracted into node groups, nor are they exposed to the modifier tab - for the same reason.)

NOTE

- Since it is a concept demonstration, it is kept as simple as possible. The GeoNodes trees are kept clean for easier readability and have detailed explanations. Everything is built from the base. The point of these setups is to provide a base core of the concept, node from node, instead of contracting all into node groups with exposed settings, which makes everything harder to read and dissect.

You can embellish, refine as you wish based on the core or realize your own ideas.

- Read the text description, it has a lot of useful info !

(The files should be opened in Blender 3.6X and above)

The file is optimized for and rendered in Eevee (Render Viewport Animation). Of course, you can set up any renderer you wish.

(What's this ? A basically free Gumroad membership to access all blend files, materials, node setups and all the fun in the Codesignproject Gumroad page. A weekly growing selection of blend files, materials, models, Geometry Nodes setups and all. These setups are kept as simple as possible, concentrating on one concept, for readability and clarity, in order to make them as useful and easy to dissect them as possible. To study, use, reuse or modify.)
