Jajajajajja same bro

Thanks Stache! I'll try and find some time to sit down with it. There are so many addons I need to familiarize myself with.

@@CurtisHolt oh yeah. Can relate. I don't think i even know node wrangler fully 😂. So completely get it! Worth the try tho For sure. Great video as always tho. Cheers 🥂

Shift+D does not separate the new nodes from the old frame.

Sure! Well it's the same for all of my tutorials, there are many ways to do each thing, 'easier' is subjective. Like how I hate using Node Wrangler becuase it's 'easier' for me to remember the entire node tree mentally when I plug things in manually, but it's 'easier' for someone else to ctrl+shift click with the addon. You could duplicate the whole frame, but I'd prefer to repeat tasks a few times because that's reinforcement learning, and I'm teaching. I like having things exposed with the Combine XYZ node because random value nodes set to Vector are annoyingly long (vertically). The programmer in me likes having the floats exposed for the future. I also feel like it's just easier to read left-to-right when they are separated. And that might sound like an excuse, but it's actually one of the core philosophies behind my EasyBPY module. I think in a very visual and linguistic way. I do not care about efficiency when creating. And I believe this so strongly that I've already made an entire video about exacrtly this topic: 😆 ukposts.info/have/v-deo/bH2Wk4Gdp4GfwHU.html

@@CurtisHolt Yes, I totally get what you're saying. From my point of view it's also not about efficiency, I'm often not working effcient - it's just when I know I'm doing the same thing three times, I automatically think to build it once and duplicate. Just like you from the start put three Collection Info nodes in there because you knew you want three collections to distribute over the plane. For the vertical size of the random node, true - vector makes it larger than float. But in my thought I would quickly come to the conclusion that a very slight randomness on X and Y rotation would help bringing more variation into it, and three float nodes are worse than one vector node. 😁 But that's just me, and your videos are great 👍

blender has a free scatter addon you can enable to do this manually by painting it down like geoscatter but simpler. for 99% of work that does fine.
