Unreal Planet Generator #6 - Cubic Grid for Planetary Landscape
Added 2024-03-22 06:31:01 +0000 UTC
In this episode of the unreal engine planet generation system, we are going to work on a cubic grid system for the planetary landscape. The reason we need a grid system is because unlike a flat landscape, a planet landscape has a spherical shape and it is hard to divide the planet surface into tiles. So, we are going to implement a cubic grid and we will divide the surface area of the planet based on which cube a particular section of the landscape mesh is contained on. This will be used for things like LOD calculations of the planetary landscape system in future.
