xpChangeGroup changes the group number of a particle.

This modifier always causes the group number to be changed, but optionally a number of other particle parameters (color, display type, etc.) can also be changed.

Mode

Independent is the default setting.

Alternatively, you can change this to Action-Controlled.

Independent Mode

In this mode, particles will be affected if they come into the field of effect of the modifier.

Action-Controlled Mode

When in the Action-Controlled Mode setting, the modifier will only act on a particle when told to do so by an action.

Threshold

When the modifier is using fields, the effect of the modifier is dependent on a particle’s position within the field.

Threshold is a user-designated point between the start of the field and the field's inner offset.
