Here is a short video of a really nice ball animation of the Earth’s Carbon
Cycle - which is the sort of thing I’d like to make a series of animations /
interactive simulations about. There a re a few more than 30-40 moving balls
here - but they are more or less dots….
https://www.youtube.com/w
That's inspired me :)
I think it may be possible to do what I want in Livecode - which would be
great. Thanks Alex and Bernd :)

Hi there submariner :-),
can you just confirm the licensing of AE ?
The demo code says it is dual Commercial & GLPL3 - but GitHub says it is

Can you just say which of those is correct ?

I tested that too. When exporting from Flash Pro you can set the animation to
be transparent. In LiveCode it kept up the 60 fps rate even when animating on
