I'm trying to make a heightfield, with waves emanating at the center.

height_field
{
 function 300,300
 {
  pigment
  {waves color_map {[0 rgb 0][1 rgb 1]} scale 0.05 translate <1,0,2*clock>/2
noise_generator 2}
  }
 }
 translate -<1,0,1>/2 scale <200,20,200>
 pigment {rgb 1}
}

I tried as you can see to place the ripples which appear at the back of the
heightfield in the center. I did two animations, one translating -2*clock
and another translating 2*clock. The result of both was identical. The
emanation point went further back. Am I missing something or is there a bug
here?
