  C4D Rotating cloner objects towards a null?

  Posted by Matthew Goodwin on October 23, 2020 at 1:53 am

  Hi peeps, Is it possible to control rotation of Cloner objects towards a Null?

  I have Cylinder objects piled in a Box. I let them drop into the box naturally using a Cloner set to grid, with a Rigid body tag on the Cloner and Collider tag on the Box. Now they’re all piled in the box.

  The Cylinders have a material on them I want facing upwards (To see the words on the matieral). Am I able to control the (H) Heading rotation on all the Cylinders to face towards a Null for instance?

  There’s a way to bake a texture on dynamic clones after they’ve fallen into place, but you can also just use a target effector on the clones and bump up the Follow Rotation parameter in the dynamics tag.
