TGEN - Terrain Generator

Terrain generator (form name : TGEN) There are 6 different sections. 

- The Surface group     (SGRP)
- The Flora group       (FRGP)
- The Radial? group     (RGRP)
- The Environment group (EGRP)
- The -unamed- group    (MGRP)
- The Layers group      (LYRS)

SGRP - Surface Group

Where all the surfaces are declared.


It's sub-divied into multiple surface families (SFAM). Each one of them declare mutliple shaders using a surface file.

Here its declares 2 shaders: dirt.rockmud, dirt.rockmund.a1 using abstract/terrain_surface/harddirt.iff

FGRP - Flora Group

Where all the flora groups are decared using appearance files.

Each one of them decalre one flora group using multiple appearance files.

Here it declares a group named 'Granite.Rocks1' wich contains graniteslab of different sizes.


RGRP - Radial Group

I Don't know much about this one yet.


EGRP - Environment Group

Declares the environement

MGRP - -unamed- Group

Where all the fractal are decalred. It's sub-divied into multiple groups (MFAM). Each one of them declare a labelled fractal.

This one decalres a fractal labeled 'oct1.nbias.BaseRolling Height' TODO: Add fractal notes here.

LYRS - Layers Group

Layers & Affectors

Basically the role of layers is to affect the data contained in the different families. They can contain any number of other sub-layers. Their order is important.

Trn layers.jpg

A layer deals with the families trough Affectors. There are different types of them, each one has it's own role. Can have Affector for texturing, flora, areas...

Known Affectors

Area Delimiters
BREC Boundary Rectangle Delimits a rectangle using 4 float: X1, Y1, X2, Y2
BCIR Boundary Circle Delimits a circle using 3 float: Xo, Yo, Radius
BPOL Bondary Polygon Delimits a n-sided closed polygon area using 2 floats (Xo,Yo) for each point.
BPLN Boundary PolyLine Delimits a n-sided line area using 2 floats (Xo,Yo) for each point and a float for the width.
FFRA Filter Fractal Delimits an area generated by a 2d fractal on the ground.


Texture / Shaders
ASCN Shader Constant Affect a shader using the family_id and the shader_id this family.
ASCR Shader Replace Replace a shader with another shader (not tested yet)


Terrain
AHCN Height Constant Raises or lowers the ground using float for delta and float(scalar?) for slope-smooting.
AHFR Height Fractal Raises or lowers the ground irregulary using a fractal type from the Fractal Family.Float for delta and float(scalar?)


Flora
AFSC Collidable Constant Sets the amount of collidable flora.
AFSN NonCollidable Constant Sets the amount of Non-collidable flora.
Radials
AFDN Radial Constant I don't know much about those yet. Seems like they change the near/far radial displaying. They're often coupled to the flora affectors, for instance when cleaning an area for a city.
AFSN NonCollidable Constant Sets the amount of Non-collidable flora.

AENV Environment Unknown
ACRF Colorramp Fractal Unknown
FHGT Filter Height Unknown
