Sprite2D CG shader: No errors, but not displaying anything
I'm working on a shader to display a liquid in the bottom of a blender. My experience with shaders is somewhat limited, but CG shaders are completely foreign to me. I wrote this based on the defualt sprite shader in the Unity standard shader library.
There are no errors, but I'm not getting anything displayed. What it's supposed to do is to draw a color below a sine wave (plus a different colored layer on top of the sine wave). Seeing as it is a very simple shader, the solution is probably very simple and just an oversight on my part, but having no previous experience with CG shaders, I am at a complete loss. Any help or insight would be much appreciated.
Shader "Unlit/Liquid"
{
Properties
{
[PerRendererData] _MainTex("Sprite Texture", 2D) = "white" {}
_Color("Color", Color) = (.7,.7,.7,1)
_FoamColor("FoamColor", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
_T("Time", float) = 0
_Amplitude("Amplitude", float) = 0
_Frequency("Frequency", float) = 0
_Offset("Offset", float) = 0
_Level("Level", float) = 0
_Thickness("Thickness", float) = 0
[MaterialToggle] PixelSnap("Pixel snap", Float) = 0
}

Okay, so I fixed it. Mostly.
I got the shader working (Zwrite had to be ON), but now I get white where I want transparency. Has this to do with the Queue?
