Fractal Tree
From Ultrafractal Wiki
Fractal Tree is a Coloring Algorithm in sam.ucl.

What is it?
This is not really a coloring. It was designed to be used with the "Pixel" formula you can find in mt.ufm. It draws a fractal tree (I don't know the name of this fractal). By playing with the transfer function and the color density of the coloring tab, you should be able to get a nice tree. You can also select the "Distance estimator" mode with a formula other than pixel. Then it will compute some iterations (what you specified in "Iteration to observe") and then apply the coloring. You will get a distorted tree.
Parameters
Mode
- Pixel : use it with "Pixel" in mt.ufm
- Distance Estimator : With any other formula. Try changing "Iteration to observe".
Dist. Est. Power
The distance is raised to this power after being computed. Set it close to 0 (0.1 or 0.01) to get a nice thin tree.
Tree Order
The number of branches in which each branch will split.
Angle between branches
(...)
Tree Magnification
Specify how smaller is a branch compared to the preceding one.
Number of iterations
The number of branch generations.
Iteration to observe
With the "Distance Estimator" mode. Defines which iterations will be used to estimate the distance from the point to the tree.
