TextureLODSteps

int ProceduralPlanets.PlanetManager.TextureLODSteps

staticgetset

Specifies the number of Level Of Detail (LOD) steps that should be used if TextureDetailMode.LOD or TextureDetailMode.LOD_Separate is used. Valid values = 2-5.

Default value is 5 (max).

When changed to a new value the LOD textures for planets existing in the scene are automatically recreated with the new number of steps. Note that you may need to update TextureLOD* arrays.

// This example requires a PlanetManager instance to be present in the scene. 
// Add the "Procedural Planets/Prefabs/PlanetManager" prefab to the scene first. 
// Then create another gameobject and attach this example script to it.

public class Example : MonoBehaviour
{
 void Start() 
 {
 // Create a random planet at the center of the scene
 PlanetManager.CreatePlanet(Vector3.zero);

 // Set the Texture Detail Mode to Level of Detail (LOD)
 PlanetManager.TextureDetailMode = PlanetManager.TextureDetailModes.LOD;

 // Set number of texture LOD levels to 5
 PlanetManager.TextureLODSteps = 5;

 // Set the texture LOD detail levels by using an array of texture resolution levels
 // The first value in the array is the highest level of detail and the last value in the array is the lowest quality
 PlanetManager.TextureLODCommon = new int[5] { 7, 6, 5, 3, 1 };

 // Set the planet sizes used to transition between mesh LOD levels
 // Note: There are only 4 entries in this array because it specifies the size *between* the LOD levels.
 // The float values in the array represent the ratio between screen height and the height of a planet as seen by the camera.
 // E.g. the value 0.5f = when the planet takes up half the screen height. 
 PlanetManager.TextureLODPlanetSizes = new float[4] { 0.6f, 0.4f, 0.2f, 0.05f }; 
 }
}
