MagmaFlow Editor Help

The unfortunate thing about Age, is that it is in integer ticks (1/2400 of a second) instead of anything useful. That means you need to convert it to a float value. Typically you would also divide by the Lifespan channel to get a value that moves from 0 at birth time, to 1 at death time. Here’s a screen shot of the Magma flow I used.
