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.

As many of you have probably heard, a new rendering backend is being worked on for Godot. Our goal is to have a modern, clustered renderer that supports everything mainstream engines support, including PBR, global illumination and flexible shader editing. Refactor the rendering API to make it easier to understand (and contribute to!).

And on startup, the collider doesn’t change position, but the renderer mesh and character controller move and hit this collider. And added a new element to the collision matrix, which was used to separate the player. I added a collider to the node where the character controller is. I solved my problem like this.

A shader is a script where you write code that determines how the colors will be rendered based on various scenarios like lighting and material configuration. The ZWrite Off and ZTest Greater are responsible for making the shader render the material behind other objects.
