As I know, track particle information on a particular wall just hook the udf to that wall and leave others as default (reflect). I'm not sure if this is correct or not but i have met a problem. when i track particles on each wall, the total amount of particles by adding them together is not equal to which all walls are selected...it really confuses me.

What's your end goal?

It's a little hard to understand what you're meaning. Say you have three faces: A, B and C. Suppose you track on A and reflect on B and C then repeat this process for faces B and C. Of course the total number of tracked particles (from A, B and C individually) would be greater than if you were to track all three at once; because some particles will reflect from B and C onto A etc.
