hey Kris,
if it is a simulated ice tree you could get the closest location on
the previous frame and the current frame, subtract the pointpositions
from each other and add this vector to your current point pos. Now do a
new closest location search with the new pos vector as an input and you
should have a compensation for your momentum on a per point basis.
Not sure it works though.
hope that helps.

I have a character walking around that has flocking particles flowing

particles "slide" to the back...responding I guess to the mesh/bodies
momentum forward. Is there any way to prevent that? I want them to
flow around but not respond to the mesh's movement in space. I'm
using a get closest location, get point and particle position, into a
linear interpolate then into a set particle position...with an align
to surface to handle the up vector. Any ideas?
