In scripted input files, the initial velocities or set using parameters to the #Region|Region command. The velocities apply to all particles in the region.

In XML input files, the velocity attributes on the #Region|<Body> command can only be constants and they set a constant velocity to all particles in the region. To set different velocity or to use a
