MEL & PARTICLE EVENT

MEL & PARTICLE EVENT

Hi,

I got two planes on top of each other. The plane on the top has holes (Logo
trimed) that will let the particles collide with the plane beneath. What I
want now is that the particles that collide with the first plane dies ... so
the particle that land on the second plane form the trimed logo.
To do that, I have to source a script in the "event procedure" but I don't
understand the whole trick as it's explained in the Maya doc.

1-Create a MEL script that contains a procedure with this format:
-- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ------
global proc myEventProc (string $particleObject,
  int $particleId, string $geometryObject)
{
Type MEL statements here;
}

-- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- --

I know what to put as "particleObject" and "geometryObject"
but what do I use as "particleId" ?
What is "Type MEL statements here" ?

I would appreciate any tips

Thanks
