This means contributors are encouraged to focus their efforts on fixing regressions and other outstanding bugs. We wont risk merging any new features or risky bug fixes until after we release 4.4 Weve unified the code to make sure it works the same on both platforms, and weve fixed some bugs. and begin preparing for 4.5.

Object Placement on Terrain (Mesh)

JANUARY 25, 2018

This chapter is all about how I solved it (so far) to be able to place all kinds of assets like 3D-meshes or self-growing fractal seeds on the terrain. Let’s assume we do it for each vertex on a mesh with let’s say 10’000 vertices. Asset placement - depending on mesh height vertices. Before we start.
