public sealed class VortexNode

Velocity turned about an axis, which is what makes a whirl rather than a pile.

As a graph node

Create menu: Vfx/Update/Vortex

Remarks

AttractNode's sibling and its opposite failure. A pull towards a point ends with every particle at the point; a turn about an axis never converges, which is what a tornado, a whirlpool or a portal wants. The opcode has shipped since the field set was written and had no node, so the only way to reach it was to build the graph in code.
