Offset

Offsets the points of a MASH network on a point by point basis.

Mass

Mode

Specifies how to apply the offset. Options include:

Offset: Adds to the Offsets to the input array.
Multiply: Multiplies the Offsets to the input array.
Overwrite: Values will be set to these regardless of incoming values.
Closest Point On Mesh: Points will offset to the nearest spot on a specified mesh.
Multiply by Time: Multiplies the offset values by the frame number and adds the result to the input array.

Transformation Space

Determines whether to transform points relative to their shared World space or their individual Local spaces.

Enable Position, Enable Rotation, Enable Scale, Enable Id

Determines which transforms are affected by the offset operation.

Offset Position, Offset Rotation, Offset Scale

Sets the offset value to be applied to each transform.

Defines lower and upper bounds for the node's output. Any values below or above these values returns the respective clamp value instead.

The following options only have an effect when Mode is set to Multiply by Time.

The following options only have an effect when Mode is set to Closest Point On Mesh.

Input Mesh: Displays the current mesh being used as input. You can assign the currently selected object either by middle-dragging it to this field or by right-clicking the field and clicking Connect.
Closest Point Mode: Closest Point on Mesh moves all points in the network to the closest point on the Input Mesh. Ray Cast shoots a ray from each point in the Ray Direction, then moves the point to the spot on the Input Mesh where it intersects (if one exists).
Ray Direction: Closest Point Mode is set to Ray Cast.
Hide on Ray Miss: Hides points whose rays miss the Input Mesh. Useful for turning off objects that fall off the mesh.

Mode

Allows you to reorder your points based on a number of different criteria. These include:

X: Reorders points along the X-axis from negative to positive.
Y: Reorders points along the Y-axis from negative to positive.
Z: Reorders points along the Z-axis from negative to positive.
Distance to Point: Reorders points based on their distance to the point specified by Distance Point.
Distance to Mesh: Reorders points based on their distance to the mesh specified by Distance Point.
Distance to Point: Reorders points based on their distance to the point specified by Distance Point.
Random: Reorders points randomly.

Reverse

Inverts the current point order.

Random Seed

Changes the randomization when Mode is set to Random.

Distance Point

Sets the relative point when Mode is set to Distance to Point.

Distance Mesh

Sets the relative mesh when Mode is set to Distance to Mesh.

Strength: Fades the node's effect for all the objects at the same time.
Random Strength: Smoothly fades the node's effect on all the objects in a random order.
Step Strength: Turns the node's effect off one object at a time.
Filter On, Filter Off: Allows you to customize which instances are always / never affected by this node.
Strength Map: Determines the input file (2D texture, animated texture, etc) that controls the shape of the node's effect.
Map Projection Axis: Determines the axis along which the Strength Map is projected.
Map Helper: Displays the object being used to interactively place the Strength Map in the scene. You can right-click the field to create a new helper object (a plane) if none exists. You can also middle-drag a mesh into this field or right-click to connect a selected mesh. If a mesh is already connected, you can also right-click to break its connection or show it in the Outliner.
Note: For the best results, assign the same texture to both the Strength Map and the Map Helper (this automatically happens when creating a new helper object).

Map adjusts Offsets: Sets the Strength Map to affect the Offsets values rather than the Strength value.
