Geo Nodes Instances controls

Question

Hello cookies, I need some help with a Geo Node setup

I have a cube with points inside, and I want to instance a collection of objects which are animated. And they pop-up every now and then, but I cant get each instance to have the animation start with the proper offset. They all start at frame 1, even if the object appears in frame 20.

Also I want to be able to control the scale, so they pop up at scale 0 and after a few frames they grow to 1

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Martin.

I don't know how the animations are set up, but can the Scene Time Node help to play them 'with the correct offset'?

No ideas for the Scale yet.

I couldn't figure it out, but It was so few objects that I ended up doing it by hand haha :)

Thanks Spikey!

Geometry Nodes is still not my expertise. It is very powerful, but I still struggle to get 'simple' things to work.

Glad you managed it anyway.

I know the feeling, trying to figure out how to 'automate' something and at a certain point just 'give up' and do it by hand👍
