Description
Unfiied Wind System
Zephyr is a simple system that runs parallel on the CPU and the GPU. It is similar to Unity’s built-in wind system, but has several key improvements.
Since it runs on both the CPU and the GPU, you can apply wind to any system! Want wind to move leaf particles, sway trees using shaders, move your physics objects, and produce sound? All of this is trivial to do in Zephyr.
Zephyr functions as a single source of truth for wind. Rather than the current way that wind is implemented where each system in your project may have a different wind manager, Zephyr’s agnostic API lets users change one value to influence all systems at once.
As a third party plugin, Zephyr is extremely extensible and can support any type of wind interaction needed for your project. Build out new systems or create new interactions with no hassle.
