Hi
as the title suggests, how can i rotate a flip pump?
i can get the pump object to work, but as soon as i rotate it, the direction of the pump stays the same.
im using an wrangle to drive the vel from the normals.
i have a volume trail, and the normals are pointing in the correct direction.

iv uploaded a hip file if any of u guys can help.
it seems like it should work, but what am i missing. Relatively new into Houdini.

Kind regards

The fields are missing in 17 too just it doesn't break it in 17. The fields that it says are missing are actually there too so not sure why this doesn't work?.
