geom. controller
Is there any way to change to strength of a geometry controller without changing the speed of it ?

Increase the mass.
Millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. Something terrible has happened.

Re: geom. controller
what if someone want to move alot of weight very slowly

Increasing the mass is a lot of weight.

Re: geom. controller
i mean if you want to lift connected objects using only one item

Increase the multiplier. The slider in the geometry controller section isn't speed, it's the power it has.

Re: geom. controller
Sorry to answer this after so long, but it seems like terse answers haven't really explained the "problem" clearly.
If you want to move (accelerate) an object then you need to apply a force to it. I'm sure we're all familiar with Newton's Second Law:
Force = Mass x Acceleration
To move large (massive) object with a small (not-so-massive) object you need to have a higher acceleration - one which can overcome the forces of friction and gravity acting on the larger object.
"What if someone wants to move a lot of weight very slowly?"
It's inconsequential. A large mass and a small acceleration are equivalent to a small mass and a large acceleration. These will both give you the same force if they're proportional and will therefore cause the same amount of acceleration when applied to your dead weight.
In summary, you have no choice but to change the mass or the geometry acceleration of the object you're using to apply the force. There simply aren't any other variables in the equation. I hope that helped.
