Add Vector

Node Description & Purpose: The Add family of nodes allow you to add the colour/scalar/vector coming into the Input by the color/scalar/vector coming into Input 2.

With Add Vector the addition is component-wise:

Main input.X + Input 2.X

Main input.Y + Input 2.Y

Main input.Z + Input 2.Z

Node Type: Function

Settings: All nodes in this family have just the one setting, which lets you choose a node for Input 2.

A scalar is a single number. 1, 200.45, -45, -0.2 are all examples of scalar values.

A vector is a set of three scalars, normally representing X, Y and Z coordinates. It also commonly represents rotation, where the values are pitch, heading and bank.
