Placement

Placement

Chooses the stem arrangement at every incoming Tree Root origin. Point puts stems at that origin. Grid makes rows and columns, Radial makes a ring, and Random spreads stems across a rectangle.

Options: Point · Grid · Radial · Random

Default: Point

Count

Sets independent stems per Tree Root origin. Grid uses Count X multiplied by Count Z instead. Three tree origins with two trunks at each produce six stems.

Available when Placement is Point or Radial or Random.

Default: 1

Pattern Rotation

Rotates the local trunk arrangement and stem growth directions around each incoming origin. The random layout stays the same as it turns. This is separate from Tree Root's rotation of the overall tree positions.

Default: 0

Orientation

Orientation

Up shares one tilt direction. Radial Outward turns each stem outward, with Rotate Pattern controlling successive directions.

Options: Up · Radial Outward

Default: Up

Tilt

Leans the whole stem away from vertical. Zero points upward; 90 degrees points horizontally.

Default: 0

Shape

Height

Sets stem height before the overall tree scale.

Default: 8

Base Radius

Sets trunk base radius before tree scale.

Default: 0.45

Tip Radius %

Sets tip radius as a fraction of base radius. 0.08 leaves 8% at the tip.

Default: 0.08

Segment Breakup

Adds shallow unevenness along the trunk surface without moving its central path.

Default: 0.08

Deformation

Curvature

Adds curvature to the trunk path. Increase it for a less straight stem.

Default: 0.25

Lean X

Leans the trunk toward positive or negative X.

Default: 0

Lean Z

Leans the trunk toward positive or negative Z.

Default: 0

Geometry

Radial Segments

Sets sides around the trunk. More sides give a rounder main stem.

Default: 12

Length Spans

Sets spans along the branch. More spans allow smoother bends and add geometry.

Default: 12

Advanced

Seed Offset

Changes this node's random variation. Keep the seed and settings unchanged to reproduce the same result.

Default: 0

Placement

Shown example: Placement = Radial.

Count

Sets independent stems per Tree Root origin. Grid uses Count X multiplied by Count Z instead. Three tree origins with two trunks at each produce six stems.

Available when Placement is Point or Radial or Random.

Default: 1

Radius

Sets the stem ring's radius. Zero puts every stem at the center.

Available when Placement is Radial.

Default: 3

Default: 1

Size X

Sets the width of the random placement area in X.

Available when Placement is Random.

Default: 6

Size Z

Sets the depth of the random placement area in Z.

Available when Placement is Random.

Default: 6

Options: Point · Grid · Radial · Random

Default: Point

Count X

Sets the number of stems across the grid in X.

Available when Placement is Grid.

Default: 3

Count Z

Sets the number of stems across the grid in Z. Total stems equal Count X times Count Z.

Available when Placement is Grid.

Default: 3

Spacing X

Sets the distance between grid positions in X.

Available when Placement is Grid.

Default: 3

Spacing Z

Sets the distance between grid positions in Z.

Available when Placement is Grid.

Default: 3

Default: 0

Orientation

Shown example: Orientation = Radial Outward.

Orientation

Up shares one tilt direction. Radial Outward turns each stem outward, with Rotate Pattern controlling successive directions.

Options: Up · Radial Outward

Default: Up

Tilt

Leans the whole stem away from vertical. Zero points upward; 90 degrees points horizontally.

Default: 0

Rotate Pattern

Turns each successive stem's orientation in degrees. Use 360 divided by Count for an even fan. This does not change ring position spacing.

Available when Orientation is Radial Outward.

Default: 137.5
