    Hi,

    i am facing some issues on how to create a simple chemical reaction in VR for example potassium with water. I cant seem to get the fluid to properly hit the beaker even though I selected the collider it has to hit on. Also, I do not know how to approach mix the potassium with water. Any help would be appreciated as i am relatively new to this area.


    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    Maybe could see images how it looks now, and how it looks like in real life as reference?
    but id try faking it with particles, shaders (particle hits water, reduce transparency or something)

    Have you checked asset store fluids plugins?

    Thanks for the reply!

    I am currently using the fluvio plugin. Unfortunately, I cannot find many tutorials online for it.I did look up some references on how the experiment is conducted and from what I understood the piece of potassium lights up, emits a few smoke particles and gradually disappears. Could you please elaborate more on the shaders or particles part on how I can use them and if you know any shader or particle plugins that can do the job?
