Question Masking Position Node not possible with texture?

Hey
So I have this weird issue I don't understand

I have a wind shader that works well, but now I want to mask the effect of the position offset with a texture

If I mask it with a noise or anything, it works
But with a grayscale texture (which should be the same as a grayscale noise in effect) does not work at all. I am pretty sure I need to do some type of conversion but have no idea which

I did try various conversion nodes like split etc but to no effect. Nothing made the texture compatible.
"Cannot map expression vs_5_0 instruction set"
The odd thing is that the shader graph does display the outcome I want in the node previews, but the result does not work.

What am I missing?



(Top dosnt work, bottom noise works as a mask)

Here is a longer gif of the whole thing and in motion:

They really need to improve the error reporting for Shader Graph...

You cannot use a Sample Texture 2D node with the position. You must use the Sample Texture 2D LOD node.

Technically the reason why you’re having a problem is noted in the documentation here:
https://github.com/Unity-Technologi...raph/Documentation~/Sample-Texture-2D-Node.md

But how it’s phrased isn’t terribly clear for most users.
