Stupid Water

Ok, I'm using the conveyor cog to simulate running water. My problem is that the vector flow points I plugged in are making the water run every way except the way I want it to. I need to know the 3 different vector flow points that would make the water flow in the direction indicated by the arrows below in the picture.

Looks like vectors (0/-1/0), (0.707/-0.707/0), and (1/0/0). BTW - thats how I enter them in JED, I believe thats the only way. of course I could be wrong...

The Sniper Missions. Current project, The Sniper Missions

The Magician Saber System.

Edit - helps if I enter the right vectors...

There is a truly wonderful plug-in for JED. I think its called JedVecCalculate or something. I think I got it from Massassi.
Did I mention its wonderful? All you do is multi select 2 points...and it tells you the vector from the 1st one to the other. You can get any vector imaginable without worrying about any of the calulations.

Or you can stick with the easy ones...
Simple vectors like...
go straight up in the air: 0/0/1
go straight down: 0/0/-1

I always just move the mouse in the direction I want to and see what coordinate numbers are changing in the lowerleft of the screen. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]
