Hi Ann,
you don't need scripting for this, though you may need a fairly recent
version which has a proper Dispatch component (to be honest, I don't
actually know if the most recent public build has the fixed Dispatch
component).
What you do is you measure the distance from each point in your grid
to both the sample points. Then you plug these distances into an
Expression F(x,y) component and compare them "x < y".
If x is closer, the result will be TRUE, if y is closer the result
will be FALSE. You can then use this stream of TRUE and FALSE values
to split your force vector stream (look for Dispatch or Split
components)
