For example, I was trying to create an amber node, which was not completly opaque. I gave up after about 1 hour of texture tweaking, mask manipulation and tests, sadly realizing there was a very bad solution : making the amber liquid.\r\nBeing able to specify an alpha value for not liquid nodes would be a very useful feature.\r\n\r\n"}}
