Function: createTerrainMesh()

createTerrainMesh(renderContext, options): TerrainMesh

Defined in: rendering/terrain/create-terrain-mesh.ts:199

Builds a single triangulated mesh visualizing a TerrainShape's heightmap, textured with a tileable "border" layer near the surface blending into a tileable "fill" layer below it (see CreateTerrainMeshOptions). Since the mesh has an arbitrary vertex count

  • not the fixed six-vertices-per-quad the sprite pipeline batches - draw it with createTerrainRenderEcsSystem rather than through createRenderEcsSystem.

Parameters​

renderContext​

RenderContext

The render context used to build the mesh's geometry and material.

options​

CreateTerrainMeshOptions

Sizing and texturing options for the mesh.

Returns​

TerrainMesh

The built TerrainMesh.
