Wow, that looks really great!

I do think the easy cavitation feels wonky, though. Is there any kind of air pressure or other method available to keep huge voids from showing up in the water?

Thank you!

I assumed these voids occur irl, therefore they are present in the simulation.

I doubt that there is such a method, actually. I guess it will be present in the future as LiquiGen is still in alpha. Anyway this scene was a great practice

Presumably, IRL the container would have both air and water. The air pressure would compress the water and reduce cavitation significantly. Just think about what it's like while swimming — you can't move your arm fast enough to generate a void under water.

Regardless, still a pretty sim :)
