Safe Power node
Access: Nodes > Math > Safe Power
Raises Base to the power of Exponent. Handles negative bases without producing NaN. Helpful for metallic specular falloffs and signed displacement maps.
| Base Input | Exponent Input | Output |
| 0.5, 0.5, 0.5 | 2.0, 2.0, 2.0 | 0.25, 0.25, 0.25 |
| 2.0, 2.0, 2.0 | 3.0, 3.0, 3.0 | 8.0, 8.0, 8.0 |
| -0.5, -0.5, -0.5 | 2.0, 2.0, 2.0 | -0.25, -0.25, -0.25 (preserves negative sign safely) |
Safe Power node inputs
|
Base |
The base value to be exponentiated. |
| Exponent | The exponent power to apply. |
Safe Power node outputs
|
Output |
The base raised to the exponent power while safely preserving the base's original sign. |
