Force Stash node to update on upstream changes July 27, 2022, 12:12 a.m.

Awesome, yes it does thank you!

Force Stash node to update on upstream changes July 26, 2022, 11:51 p.m.

I have a mesh and have a few separate Vellum sims that fire in a linear fashion. I've found I need to "stash" the output of the first vellum sim, otherwise the 2nd vellum sim runs forever. As result there is a bunch of manual updates I want to remove in the graph to have it cook and update properly.

Upstream I want to update a rigpose node and have all the stashes update and sims fire on the new data.

I am not having any luck getting both the stash nodes to updates.. I have tried python sops before and after the stash with hou.node("../stash1").parm("stashinput").pressButton()

and I have tried

n = hou.node("../stash1")
parm = n.parm("stash")
parm.set(geo) without much luck.

I am under the impression that the stash node might need a time update to trigger, but have not been able to make a timeshift force an update either.

Thanks for any help.

`@pdg_output` not finding HDA processor output geo Dec. 7, 2019, 5:26 p.m.

I am seeing similar issues with 18.0.311 trying to use PDG with apprentice. Lots of crashes also. Even on basic stuff not using the HDA processor but as basic as cooking a Top geometry import node from step 2 of the city building PDG tut.
