Hello,
I want to improve my simulator ‘arena’ which so far consists of a box floor and box walls. I need a real time editable terrain generator. To keep it simple I split my arena into a 10x10 grid and when I click with my mouse on a specific place which belongs to a square on the grid I need a block to popup there so I can just click edit the whole maze (right click removes the block and leaves just floor there).
Is there an easy way of doing this using height maps? I did some digging around and found nothing suitable. I see there is a way of generating a rawheightmap from an image which means that I would have to generate a new grid image everytime I click and then load the height map in from there. The issue is that I need to be able to do this when there are units on the arena and I’m worried that they will fall through when the arena is being rebuilt.
So far the best plan I have is to build everything on the fly using planes and planecollisionshapes. Is that a viable solution?
