Animate Sauce

[drowsy sedge]

How could I animate sauce flowing down this chute into the barrel?

i think im just gonna keep it simple and make a mesh that looks like sauce moving down the chute into the barrel and make it visible when the machine is running

You could make a beam with a custom fluid- like texture with two attatchments, the faucet, and the bucket, and adjust the texture speed and curvature, width, thats just one method idk if it would look good tho

i guess if I wanted to be lazy about it, I could just make this mesh visible and have a cylinder in the barrel size up vertically until its full

beams are pretty easy and they look nicer you should try them out like DevBot said

thanks gentlemen looking good already, is there any way to adjust the thickness of it besides the width or should i make a couple duplicates to make it look thicker
