Tension Engine: Advanced Water for Blender

Tension Engine V1.0

Tension Engine is a geometry-nodes based system that, well, adds surface tension to water!

Why?

I haven't seen ANYONE do this before in Blender. But if you look at water anywhere, you will almost invariably find it. Little reflective 'lips' around objects in the water will basically be anywhere except if you add soap (which breaks the surface tension). It's a small thing, but it can make a huge difference.

I made a system to deal with this, just add a modifier to your water object and select another object or collection as colliders. You also get a free water material and a procedural wetness/darkening node.
