Relationship Manager question

When I build my Hybrido scene, it by default the relationship manager wants to plug everything into a Hub... but in the demo scenes (and tutorials I have watched online) the Hub is seldom (if ever) used and things are plugged directly into one another (for example .. the Hybrido Domain is usually at the center)

Are there any efficiencies doing it one way of the other? Using the Hybrido Domain as the center point seems like it would be more efficient ... or does it just come down to a preferred way of working?

Hi,

Keep in mind that every node connect to the Hub will be interacting with other nodes also connected to the hub. In the sace of the domain, it would be the same.

OK... so is it fair to say that a hub is sort of like the old Global Links but plugging nodes only into specific emitters is more like the old exclusive links?

actually, i don't suppose it matters in that case... you still only plug nodes into the items that they should be affecting...

either way... one method isn't necessarily faster for simulating... correct?

Thanks for the reply.
