Download the documentation

This tutorial shows how to set up magnetic field lines and attach them to an object, in this case, a rotating Earth.

This feature is the only one that requires an external package: Vectrosity by Starscene Software (it draws the lines). Without Vectrosity, everything except the field lines will work.

Interactivity

None. Enjoy the show.
