Additional Notes

I feel like I am using the wrong word, but my brain is ded as I am working while at home with a sick toddler. I don't think the right word is "exponential decay". I am thinking of like a sigmoid function where the velocity approaches some speed. If you think of a better word, let me know.

• Velocity clamping

    * Disallow particles from having velocities over a certain value
    * This could be done by setting a ceiling, or an exponentially decaying velocity
