Title: I dont know if this strange or not...need a little explanation!

Hi guys.

I was just messing around with the coronaAO function to give a little something to the edges.
And this is what happened.
The sphere's material is just simple, there is no AO in the diffuse map.

When I move the sphere into the cube, it gives a nice outline for it too...and its strange for me, because I dont understand why.

Iam really interested in why is this happening.

Thanks!

Hi,

This is because Corona AO by default takes into account any scene object within set radius. If you don't want this behaviour, you can restrict AO to within the material, or object, or exclude certain objects from casting AO. Look for these settings in AO node in material editor.
