Wind sway for 2D plants and banners
In your harnessGodot shaderMIT
Sway 2D foliage in the wind by shearing the sprite's top while its base stays planted, with a gust wave that travels across the scene and a phase taken from each node's position so neighbours move out of step.
What it takes and gives
- Shader type
- canvas_item
- Parameters
- strength (float = 14), speed (float = 1.6), gust_strength (float = 10), gust_wavelength (float = 600), gust_speed (float = 220), stiffness (float = 1.5), base_v (float = 1)
- Use it on
- Sprites whose planted edge is at the bottom (or set
base_v). - Result
- Four plant sprites leaning and swaying at different phases above the ground.
- Renderers
- compatibility: compiled and rendered, forward plus: not verified, mobile: not verified
- Placement
- res://baltor/godot_shaders/sprite_wind_sway/
Limits. A Sprite2D has four vertices, so it shears rather than curves; use a subdivided Polygon2D or MeshInstance2D for a curved bend. Large shears push the sprite beyond its bounding rectangle used for culling.
