Fluid sims are just so darn fun! Nice writeup, very accessible.
replyCouple of notes, I think you forgot to apply timestep when adding rocket exhaust velocity, pretty sure it should be
u[idx] += backward.x * flame_velocity_amount * falloff * delta
v[idx] += backward.y * flame_velocity_amount * falloff * delta
Yeah it seems I missed that, adding the rocket at the end was a cherry on the top and I was so exhausted already I'm surprised it even works lol
replyIt made it very fun to play with though :D
replyGreat job. I have spent a lot of time working on fluid simulations (I still am). Glad to see more people still mesmerized. If you’re interested, this rabbit hole goes very deep.
replyexcellent article, great vulgarisation and human written !
replyThank you
