buoyancy_influence

The buoyancy influence applies an acceleration proportionate to temperature along the buoyancy direction. It only works with the simulate_aero node currently, and is not support for simulate_particles.

To use this node, plug its output into the influences input of simulate_aero.

Inputs

influence

One may optionally connect an influence field out_influence into this port. For example a mask_influence node could be connected to mask the effect of this influence. Any number of influence fields may be added to the daisy chain to build a complex field.

enable

Turn off to disable the effect. Disabling makes it a pass through node. Note that any other influence fields connected to the influence input port will still be active when this is disabled.

buoyancy

The buoyancy vector. This supplies both direction and magnitude of push to apply based on the relative temperature. The default is up and simulates the way hot gas will rise opposite the direction of gravity.

Outputs

out_influence

An output influence object that one can connect to simulation nodes or other influence nodes.
