Hey everyone!

I am trying to simulate a little fire camp where the logs fall over for a class assignement and while simulating the smoke, I need to add a pump velocity to the logs to drag the smoke a little while falling.
So far, here is what I did and where my problem lays :
1. I select pump from object in the shelf
2. I select my geometry (logs)(in the viewport)
3. I try to select my fluid (smoke) in the viewport & in the node network but it does not seem to work.

I keep getting an error message saying there was nothing to be selected OR it does generate smoke but only for one of the logs (as if only repeating it's volume in smoke)I have been doing my selection in the viewport on the second frame since the is no pyro generated on the first frame. I can't manage to select it via the node network. (I've tried via the whole DOP and via the pyrosolver node)
I am quite at lost right now and really can't figure this one out!
If anyone ever had this problem before and found a solution or simply just know what I'm doing wrong, I would really really appreciate the help!

Thank you
