Absorption Input - Crest Water

Add Component ‣ Crest ‣ Inputs ‣ Crest Absorption Input

Registers a custom input to the AbsorptionLod.

Attach this to objects that you want to influence the scattering color.

Properties¶

Mode	The mode for this input. See the manual for more details about input modes. Use AddComponent(LodInputMode) to set the mode via scripting. The mode cannot be changed after creation.
Paint	Hand-painted data by the user.
Spline	Driven by a user created spline.
Renderer	Attached ‘Renderer’ (mesh, particle or other) used to drive data.
Texture	Data driven by a user provided texture.
Weight	Scales the input.
Queue	The order this input will render. Order is Queue plus SiblingIndex
Feather	The width of the feathering to soften the edges to blend inputs. Inputs that do not support feathering will have this field disabled or hidden in UI.
Follow Horizontal Wave Motion	How this input responds to horizontal displacement. If false, data will not move horizontally with the waves. Has a small performance overhead when disabled. Only suitable for inputs of small size.

Driven by a user created spline.

Spline	The Crest Spline to use with this input.
Override Radius	Whether to override the spline’s radius.
Radius	The radius of the spline.
Override Subdivisions	Whether to override the spline’s subdivisions.
Subdivisions	Increasing subdivision increases the geometry density. Mostly useful for water level changes. High values can reduce staircasing effect.
Absorption Color	The color of water due to absorption.

Hand-painted data by the user.

LeftClick, hold and drag to set absorption. Hold Shift-LeftClick to remove.

Data	Stores the editor paint data.
Baked Texture	Stores the standalone paint data.
Bake On Save	Automatically re-bakes the texture on save. This will only work after the first bake.
Show Baked Texture	Force the input to use the baked paint data for standalone.
World Size	Change the world size of the painted area. Will not delete data when shrinking.
Requested Texel Density	The resolution of the output. Output texture resolution will scale to the world size based on this value - basically how many texels per unit (meters).
Maximum Resolution	The maximum resolution of the output. If one dimension exceeds this value, it will be clamped, and the smaller dimension will be scaled down proportionally.
Brush Size	Size of the brush.
Brush Strength	Strength of the brush.
Color	The color to use when painting.
Override Color	Whether to override all stroke colors. Instead of using the color that was painted, all strokes will use the current color.

Data driven by a user provided texture.

Texture

Texture to render into the simulation.

Multiplier

Multiplies the texture sample.

This is useful for normalized textures. The four components map to the four color/alpha components of the texture (if they exist).

If you just want to fade out the input, consider using weight instead.

Attached ‘Renderer’ (mesh, particle or other) used to drive data.

Renderer	The renderer to use for this input. Can be anything that inherits from Renderer like MeshRenderer, TrailRenderer etc.
Disable Renderer	Forces the renderer to only render into the LOD data, and not to render in the scene as it normally would.
Override Shader Pass	Whether to set the shader pass manually.
Shader Pass Index	The shader pass to execute. Set to -1 to execute all passes.
Check Shader Name	Check that the shader applied to this object matches the input type. For example, an Animated Waves input object has an Animated Waves input shader.
Check Shader Passes	Check that the shader applied to this object has only a single pass, as only the first pass is executed for most inputs.
