With this daemon you are able to create a centre of rotation around a certain point in space. "Vortex" creates a force field around the centre and along a vertical axis. Both forces can be adjusted independently. The daemon provides two different methods: “Classic” and “Complex”. “Complex” vortices are closer to reality and they are suited for tornado-like structures. Of course, the "Vortex" daemon can be bounded, too, but cannot be scaled with Node > Scale. Please keep in mind that it is necessary to perform all settings under the vortex panel.

To use this setting, “Complex” must be chosen. “Radius” determines the distance from the vortex centre where in metres [m] where the forces reach their maximum.
