public final class Terrain

Object
Terrain

Ground. Layers are chosen per pixel from height and slope, so any mesh (a heightfield, a Primitives.grid displaced by VERTEX_OFFSET, a level built from boxes) is painted without UVs or splat textures. Use with Material.Type.PBR or Material.Type.LAMBERT.

Fields

`public static final` `String SAND = "terSand"`	`VEC3` colour below `LEVELS.x`: beach, mud.
`public static final` `String GRASS = "terGrass"`	`VEC3` colour of flat ground.
`public static final` `String ROCK = "terRock"`	`VEC3` colour of steep ground.
`public static final` `String SNOW = "terSnow"`	`VEC3` colour above `LEVELS.y`.
`public static final` `String LEVELS = "terLevels"`	`VEC4`: sand top height, snow line height, the slope (normal y) below which rock shows, and the blend width.
`public static final` `String SCALE = "terScale"`	`FLOAT` repeats of the detail noise per world unit.
`public static final` `String WATERLINE = "terWater"`	`FLOAT` world height of the waterline, under which ground darkens as if wet.

Methods

`public static` `ShaderMaterial layered()`	Sand, grass, rock and snow by height and slope, with noise breaking up every boundary and wet ground along the waterline.
`public static` `ShaderMaterial rock()`	Bare stone on every face, its strata and grain mapped by `Shading.boxUv` so cliffs and boulders need no UVs.

Field details

SAND

public static final String SAND = "terSand"

VEC3 colour below LEVELS.x: beach, mud.

GRASS

public static final String GRASS = "terGrass"

VEC3 colour of flat ground.

ROCK

public static final String ROCK = "terRock"

VEC3 colour of steep ground.

SNOW

public static final String SNOW = "terSnow"

VEC3 colour above LEVELS.y.

LEVELS

public static final String LEVELS = "terLevels"

VEC4: sand top height, snow line height, the slope (normal y) below which rock shows, and the blend width.

SCALE

public static final String SCALE = "terScale"

FLOAT repeats of the detail noise per world unit.

WATERLINE

public static final String WATERLINE = "terWater"

FLOAT world height of the waterline, under which ground darkens as if wet. Set it below the terrain to turn it off.

Method details

layered

public static ShaderMaterial layered()

Sand, grass, rock and snow by height and slope, with noise breaking up every boundary and wet ground along the waterline.

Returns

a new shader material

rock

public static ShaderMaterial rock()

Bare stone on every face, its strata and grain mapped by Shading.boxUv so cliffs and boulders need no UVs.

Returns

a new shader material
