This GPU Niagara System uses Distance Fields to create dynamically moving and animated (via shader vertex offsets) StaticMesh bugs that snap to walls and objects with a possibility to be attracted or repulsed. 

Multiple parameters exposed that control speed, repulsion strength, randomness, number of bugs.

The attraction/repulsion location and radius are controlled via Niagara Parameter Collection from any actor.

Distance Fields must be enabled in the game for this effect to work!
