[Bf-committers] Fluid Sim Status

[Brecht Van Lommel]

The simulation scale limit should be safe to remove. The resolution
limit has a reason, the fluid sim code uses 32 bit int's for indexing,
and those will overflow with too high resolution. At least if there
are 1024^3 cells I think that is roughly the limit when the domain is
a cube. A domain with resolution > 1024 in one dimension but lower in
the others might work, when the total number of cells is still smaller
than 1024^3.
