The Capsule node
When to use it
A vertical capsule: a cylinder with hemispherical caps. Limbs, balloons, rounded pillars.
Radius sets both the tube and the caps. Half Height covers only the straight middle section, so the total length works out at twice Half Height plus twice Radius.
For a shape going into a Smooth Union this beats Cylinder every time. Round caps blend where flat caps crease.
