Octane scatter clones jumping and shuffling

The position of clones scattered in an octane scatter object on an animated mesh, jump and jitter every frame, like the seed value is being re-calculated per frame. This doesn't happen with C4D's native cloner object.

Well! Bug is something like that doesn't work as promised. Scatter is a distributer by amount of face area. You can use cloner if it works fine.

I didn't realise this was a limitation of octane... c4d cloner works fine, but now when you're scattering 15000 objects.

It's scatter object not cloner. Not about limitation that's purpose of my design.

As i said this is about alghoritm and not intended to be used for this kinda animated surfaces. It's a free addon and please don't say that's a bug. It would be a bug if that's not working as promised.

In order to stop this, you have to use vertex distribution.
