This article or section is a Stub. You can help the Resonite Wiki by expanding it.

Spatial variables allow for sampling values and references from points in global space. They are mainly used via components, but there are ProtoFlux nodes for sampling them as well. Currently there are just two shapes that can be used with spatial variables: box and sphere.

Types of spatial variables

Constant Reference Box/Sphere
Constant Value Box/Sphere
Gradient Value Box
Texture3D Box
Vertex Value Box
Start End Value Sphere

Types of spatial variable drivers/samplers

Value
Boolean
Reference
Type
Min Max Value
Numeric Value

Usage

Create a spatial variable from one of the types listed above.
Create a driver/sampler (or multiple) from one of the types listed above. It will sample the value from inside of the shape.

It's that simple! Now, when the sampler is inside of the spatial variable's range, it should output a value.
