Remarks

Fluid flow can be defined to move in any direction with a specific magnitude and a random variation on that magnitude.
This property defines the size of the force to be applied in the direction defined by _flowAngle. This magnitude can be randomly varied by using _flowVariation.
The flow forces are applied to the center of any submerged region of a Collider2D so it will not produce any torque (rotation) if the Collider2D is fully submerged (fully below the _surfaceLevel) but will produce torque if the Collider2D is partially submerged (overlapping the _surfaceLevel).
