Exploded view

not sure if this script or a script that can do this exists but i'm thinking of making an exploded view animation

basically i have thousands of objects in my scene in a small area of a product, i want the whole product to explode (not in a chaotic way)

so every object moves away from the centre of the object as if it is completely disassembled into it's components and i want to animate it

i can't think of a way to do it without key framing every single part and there's way too many

anyone got any suggestions?

Cheers

could you make a screenshot

could you make a screenshot example showing the camera, 20 objects and the center of "explosion"

also, how would you like to control the speed?
mass based on density * BB volume * global velocity ?
or the same speed for all objects?
do you want an exploding motion or linear?

also.. do you want the objects to explode to a point where no more intersections happen or is that of no importance?

if you only need a linear motion you only need 2 keyFrames per obj... wich you could then later edit in the curveEditor so to get a fluid exploding motion with 2 keyframes per onject
