Layer Blend

The Visual Compositor. Combines two float maps using standard layer blending modes, similar to software like Photoshop or GIMP. All results are clamped between 0.0 and 1.0.

Ports

Port	Type	Direction	Description
A	Float	Input	The "Background" or "Base" layer.
B	Float	Input	The "Foreground" or "Blend" layer.
Output	Float	Output	The blended result.

Blend Modes

Mode	Visual Effect	Description
Multiply	Darken	Multiplies A and B. Result is always darker. Great for masking noise with a vignette.
Screen	Lighten	Inverts both, multiplies, and inverts back. Result is always lighter. Useful for adding "glow" or highlights.
Overlay	Contrast	Multiplies or Screens based on the base value. Preserves highlights and shadows. Excellent for adding detail to a heightmap.
Difference	Inversion	Subtracts the smaller value from the larger. Creates high-contrast edges where maps differ.
Add	Brighten	Simple addition (clamped to 1.0). Useful for combining multiple independent noise sources.
Subtract	Cutout	Subtracts B from A (clamped to 0.0). Perfect for "carving" valleys or rivers into terrain.
