Dustsim 无尘/粒子模拟器

Dustsim compared with Algodoo, The Powder Toy and Particle Illusion
Dustsim	Algodoo	The Powder Toy	Particle Illusion
Physical model and scale: Particles are computed on the GPU, with 262,144 particles by default and a higher count possible in the settings if the device allows. You place sources and attracting masses, and there are no hard walls or similar boundaries.	Physical model and scale: Physical systems are drawn and simulated in 2D, with gears, motors, water, lenses and laser beams. Graphs and force visualization help to read the results.	Physical model and scale: The simulation includes air pressure and velocity, heat and gravity, with many interactions between substances such as liquids, gases and electronic components.	Physical model and scale: It is a GPU accelerated generator of 3D particle effects built from emitters, forces and deflectors, with fluid dynamics presets. It is aimed at motion graphics and visual effects rather than at measured physical quantities.
所需专业技能： Little. The interface is mouse only, and you can start from a scenario or from a blank page.	所需专业技能： Beginner level. Tutorials cover educational scenes such as gears, motors and turning objects into water.	所需专业技能： Beginner level for playing with materials, with more depth for users of the Lua API.	所需专业技能： Intermediate. The node based workflow assumes some experience with compositing and effects.
Customization and scripting: A scenario editor was added in version 1.03, so setups can be modified or created. No scripting interface is described.		Customization and scripting: A Lua API lets users automate work or write plugins, and community made saves can be browsed and uploaded.	Customization and scripting: A large preset library is provided, and some emitter libraries come as a separate download.
平台和安装： It runs in the browser as an HTML5 page, with no download described.	平台和安装： Desktop versions for Windows and Mac are downloaded from the Algodoo site, and an iPad version is on the App Store.	平台和安装： Versions exist for Windows, macOS, Linux and Android, as well as Steam, and a browser version can be played online.	平台和安装： Windows 10 or 11 and macOS 10.15 or later are supported.
