====== Water Object ======

[{{:pasted:20211101-101438.png?400|WaterObject inspector.}}]

''WaterObject'' is the main script of DWP2. It handles all the buoyancy and hydrodynamics calculations.\\
\\
''WaterObject'' gets the data needed for simulation from the //Simulation Mesh//. This is a static mesh that will be used for simulating water/object interaction and can either be the original mesh or a simplified version of it. ''WaterObject'' provides basic tools for mesh triangle decimation, removal of co-located vertices, and convexification - if needed.

==== Tips ====
  * When using hollow boat/ship hulls it is recommended to use the ``Convex`` option when generating the simplified mesh.
  * ''WaterObject'' density should be above ~15kg/m. Large volume, extremely low mass objects can cause the object to jump/fly away when falling into the water.
