Inter-Mask Dependencies

You can use the output of other material masks as a parameter for your material mask.

This mask can be from any other or even the same species.

Limitations are as follows:

• You can't create circular dependencies, meaning the species that you depend on can't depend on your species.
• When using masks from the same species you can't depend on masks higher on the Masks Generation Order.

You can change the order of generation for masks inside the Masks Generation Order list property found in the species asset. Items higher on the list generate first.

Default order is

1. Growth
2. Group
3. Scale

You can read other Mask Materials outputs into your material by using species sample node or by using the Species parameter class.
