We have a new rebel pack for you! This version of the Rebel Pack, 0.4.0, works with Bifrost 2.2 and later versions.

How to install compounds and graphs: https://help.autodesk.com/view/BIFROST/ENU/?guid=Bifrost_Common_install_compounds_and_graphs_html

• This release removes several compounds and graphs that are now shipped with Bifrost, including get_geo_property_or_default, normal_and_tangent_to_orientation, and point_scope_rev3, set_mesh_uvs.
• It also removes scatter_points, and has a hidden node called scatter_points_legacy, as Bifrost now contains a node with the same name.
• distance_to_instances measures distance to instanced geometry using geometry queries.
• scatter_points_in_gaps scatters using blue noise between other instances, avoiding them. 
• Several new field-based influences, including aero_pyroclastic_influence, aero_noise_transport_influence, aero_erode_density_influence, aero_einstein_influence from the FX team. 
• Fixed sort array and remove duplicates for cases of empty arrays
• Replace update_face_tangent with faster version

Hello jonah.

Because the new version of Bifrost has its own "scatter_points" node, the scatter points of "Rebel Pack 0.3" have been renamed. This caused the previous simulate_lightning becomes unavailable.

I suggest that we should develop a compound naming rule, adding the abbreviation of our own name before the compound. Such as:

scatter_points => Reb_scatter_points

memory_cache => Reb_memory_cache

If everyone follows this standard, conflicts will be greatly reduced.
