FluidPlugin Alpha out(CHECK OTHER THREAD)

im pretty sure ya, so that would be possible using events? sounds good.

getting the fluid speed at an arbitrary point though, would it automatically interpolate, or only give the velocity at the nearest square

Well, as of reading your first question it'll interpolate
That makes more sense, though I may put both options, since if it was in the center od 4 squares
That would be a lot of interpolation if you wanted to have a lot of it going on

On a side note, I was having a look at how the wall reflections are done. I will probably be able to allow you to add obstacles, but only aligned to grid cell sizes, probably no diagonals either

Ill look into getting past both those limitations, but it seems doubtful

diagonals could possibly "work" if you allowed the fluid to "interesect" (pass onto the the cell with a diagnol in it), you could only allow for full cell or 45deg cell, but that would allow you to approximate a shape acceptably, if the fluid passes onto a 45 deg cell it would be treated as a normal cell, not a solid cell, but still would deflect the velocity vector in that cell based on the 45deg angle and previous velocity(?) (dont know if youre implementation stores that) however you would do that or something similar.

i dunno just putting ideas out there, again im not sure of your implementation so i dont know if my ideas are possible/would work

i wouldnt mind if fluid could pass into 45 deg angled solids like that, seeing as solids would probably be infront of fluid gfx anyways.

sounds good about the particle advection.

oh yea, was wondering if implementing gravity onto the fluid is also a possibility, i would imagine its a simple case of adding/doing gravitational acceleration to the y velocity vector? you know to add a kinda heavy smokey-ness like when dry ice releases gas.

oh and btw, found this online

seems like another rather fast implementation of fluid, and it wraps around screen edges

yeah
I can probably add wraparound if you'd like
but that was the one I used before with the unwritten license from the land of mystery
this one has more options though, and takes advantage of multicore cpu's
and has a license that clearly allow commercial use

but thanks
