Could someone help tutor me on the codes?

[Platypus5]

I need help understanding the codes used in the current models. I don't understand at all what [0,1,0] means, for example. Could someone help tutor me?

Some fields can accept a "vector". A vector is a direction in x,y,z coordinates. X is left/right. Y is front/back and Z is up/down.

[x,y,z]

So if I want to have an object emitter go "left" instead of straight up (as it does by default) you could put this formula in:

[10,0,0]

The body will emit from the side with a strength of 10.

[10,0,10]

The body will emit from the up and to the side.

[0,0,-10]

Straight down.

Try:

[rand(20),rand(20),0]

By default the emitter strength is effectively [0,0,strength]. Remember the last number is Z and that is straight up.
