Probably a stupid question but I can't find an answer anywhere. I'm trying to use PDG to filecache a dop network. When I cook the RopGeometryOutput it fails probably because the node tries to cache the frames in random order.
I've attached a realy simple example with a pyro.

Thanks !

You need to turn on “all frames in one batch” in the rop fetch tab, as this is a simulation. If you don't have that on, it will launch the jobs randomly for each frame, and then do a run up for every frame - it will work, but super inefficient and not at all what you want.
