v0.40

A float or vector field that uses one of several noise functions.

Some of these may be costly to compute, so pay attention to frame rate when using them.

The different types of noise use different types of coordinates. If the type of coordinate used by Noisetype doesn’t match the Coordtype, any missing parts will be replaced with zeros. When the Coordtype is 3D but the Noisetype only uses 2D, the Axis parameter determines which parts of the coordinates are used.

For types that use 4D coordinates, the Translate and Scale parameters can still be used to control the 4th coordinate.

Contexttype
Axis

When the Noisetype uses 2D coordinates but Coordtype is 3D, this is used to choose which plane of the coordinates are used.
