Optimizing Particle Systems with a Grid Lookup and Spatial Hashing In this post we have a look at a method with which we can greatly improve a collision detection system. Using a lookup grid we can greatly reduce the number of required checks between particles. We will also look at some methods to optimize this lookup grid.
