Molten METL

    1.  close the top of your mold so there is just a small neck.

     

    2.  cool it slower.

     

    3.  even in real life the open part of the mold is rough and irregular, further processing (grinding, milling) is required to clean up the rough spots.  without closing the mold or cutting off the scrap, it is going to be rough.

    Turn off velocity maybe?

     


    nevermind, even that doesn't work.

    It is quite realistic IRL when you melt metal you get slag as oxides and other stuff, if you move the metal when its cooling it produces a roughtish texture.

    Turns out it's not pressure that makes LAVA curl up when it solidifies, it's a bug. @jacksonmj found and fixed it though :D

    So i'm not sure what you can really do until the next version. The METL simulates as a gas for one frame.

    sure, if someone wanted a snapshot of the current development branch I could compile one ... (well not right now, i'm on windows and it wouldn't be completely static)
