Is there any way of stopping particles from passing through walls etc. Basically what I've done is created a shower with a steam effect. The shower has a surrounding cubicle(cylinder) with an opening. What I'm after, is a way in which to prevent the steam particles from passing through the cubicle walls.

I welcome your input as I've so far found no method of accomplishing this.

Thanks in advance.

not impossible.

make the particle stream die before it hits the wall or move the walls further away, obviously not ideal solutions, but not impossible :)

Thanks guys, that's pretty much what I had, after tweaking there were only a few escaping particles. You can only really tell when it's nighttime so I guess it'll just have to do.

if you make your walls thicker it might help, they'll still be passing through, but at least they shouldn't come out the other side.
