How is the max height calculated when using a heightmap? #169
-
|
So my example heightmap and terrain generated shown below. Black RGB (0,0,0) becomes a height of 0. Why is the maximum height 272? Is alpha involved? Should we introduce a scaling option (min/max) values?

With heightmaps it looks like the max height is calculated using an arbitrary value, terrainWidth * 0.17f It should be possible to plug in different values to replace the hard coded 0.17f, the UI fields just have to be added in. Adding in fields to change the value makes sense to me. |
