My simulation doesn’t calculate accurately
You will probably have noticed already that when you view your complex simulation in real time, the simulation may not be as accurate. This is because the simulation has less time to calculate. After all, it’s real time.
One way to fix this is to utilize the baking feature in the Geometry Node editor.
Figure 21.4: Bake node
By utilizing this, the Simulation Zone will provide more accurate results. Using the Bake node is not only beneficial for accuracy, but also to save parts of your node tree to then further develop, without having performance issues.
Baking is also a necessity when working with render farms or transferring your projects to other users. This ensures that the end user receives the same simulation as you were creating.
More information on baking and the Bake node can be found in Chapter 18.
