Influence Actors¶

This section offers a summary of the properties of the Influence Actors that impact the calculations related to atmospheric composition.

Common properties¶

All Influence Actors come with a set of common properties to control their behavior and appearance.

Property	Type	Description
Atmosphere	Actor	The atmosphere the influence actor should be assigned to.
Is Active	Boolean	Activates or deactivates the atmospheric influence.

Property	Type	Description
Influence Unbound	Boolean	If true, the influence is always active, regardless of distance.
Use Cubic Influence	Boolean	If true, calculations regarding influence will be based on a cubic shape.
Apply Influence Boundary Falloff	Boolean	Activates simulation of decreasing impact with increasing distance from the actors's center.
Influence Boundary Falloff Factor	Float	Determines the rate at which the influence effects decrease towards the outer boundary. Higher values result in a sharper decrease.
Influence Extent	Float	Range within which the influence is effective.

Property	Type	Description
Use Visuals	Boolean	Toggle to use the built-in visual representations.
Show Bounds	Boolean	Determines whether to show the bounds visually.
Bounds Color	Linear Color	Color of the bounds indicator.
Main Mesh	Static Mesh	The main mesh to represent the atmospheric source visually.
Main Mesh Location	Vector	Location of the main mesh.
Main Mesh Rotation	Rotator	Rotation of the main mesh.
FX	Niagara System	The Niagara system to represent the atmospheric effect visually.
FX Location	Vector	Location of the Niagara effects.
FX Rotation	Rotator	Rotation of the Niagara effects.
FX Color	Linear Color	Color of the Niagara effects.

Property	Type	Description
Gases	Map<Gas Type, Gas Config>	Defines the types and properties of gases emitted to the atmosphere.

Property	Type	Description
Gases	Map<Gas Type, Gas Config>	Defines the types and properties of gases absorbed from the atmosphere.

Property	Type	Description
Steam	Float	Average steam produced.
Max Steam Emission	Float	Maximum limit of steam emission.
Steam Emission	Float	Rate at which steam is emitted.

Property	Type	Description
Condensate	Float	Average humidity.
Max Humidity Decrease	Float	Maximum amount of humidity decrease allowed.
Absorption Rate	Float	Rate at which humidity is absorbed.

Property	Type	Description
Heat Output	Float	Average heat output of the heater.
Max Heat Output	Float	Maximum heat output.
Radiation Rate	Float	Rate at which heat is radiated.

Property	Type	Description
Heat Absorption	Float	Avergae heat absorbed by cooler.
Max Heat Absorption	Float	Maximum heat absorbed.
Absorption Rate	Float	Rate at which heat is absorbed.
