Water effects and ripples

Hello, MM team! Thank you for this amazing game!

Had a quick question mainly for John, but I'm open to any possible insights. There was a game informer coverage video where they showed off Francis wielding an electric guitar (that's it's own mystery to me), but I was wondering how the water effect ripples might have been made every time Francis made a splash? I figured something with the impact sensor, but I got lost quick.

I believe Christophe also had a similar effect happening in his top down platformer as well.

Thanks for any help you all can give!

  And finally adjusted the emit position based o

  ...on a laserscope position that shoots down from the puppets head and set to detect the waters surface.
  
  It's a bit complex, let me know how you get on

  Got it! Or at least something comparable. My water looks in no way as clean, and I had to tinker with some alternative logic, but definitely doable with the right know how. You're amazing, thanks!
