# Turn

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Turn modifier** of the particle system in **Cinema 4D**. It bends particle trajectories along configurable axes with delay and randomness — from precise 90° turns to gentle sweeping curves.

With the help of this modifier, particles can be moved along curved paths and precisely bending particle trajectories can be implemented. You can configure the direction of the curves along different axis systems and also use a delay and randomness. The following video shows an example of this. In the video, the exact 90° curves were implemented using various **Turn** Modifiers, which act on the particles randomly and at different time intervals.
