Effector (Custom Base)
The core effector node. Used as the base when authoring custom effectors via VEX.
Experimental. The effector framework continues to expand. Parameters and behaviour may change.
The Effector node is the core effector mechanism exposed for direct VEX scripting. It takes the merged effector stream and produces a per-point direction-vector attribute that growth nodes read. Every built-in effector in the catalogue contains a core effector inside; this node is what to reach for when a needed response isn't already covered by a built-in. It is paired with a Wrangle that writes the direction attribute.
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The effector instance name. The output vector attribute must be written with this same name (one of the three custom-effector authoring conventions). |
Notes
- The custom-effector authoring conventions (group lookup on input 2, second input as geometry/parameter passthrough, output vector name matching the node name) live in the Effectors page.
