Dev Blog - Building System

Hi Everyone !

Here again a small progress-update about Rokatusch. Notice: Since the workers are controlled by AI (Artificial intelligence / Computer player), there are some delays between the actions (Running, cutting trees and building buildings),

What's going on?

I updated the building process. Grass and other environment details (Stones, flowers, ...) at building will be removed from now on. Food production building was added too.

What's next?

I will work on the resources logic next.

How does grass removing work in Unity

// Removes details of terrain [layer] at [position] for size [halfExtendWorld] (Half extended quad in world size) private static void RemoveMapDetails(Terrain terrain, Vector3 position, float halfExtendWorld, int layer = 0) { var detailWidth = terrain.terrainData.detailWidth; var halfDetailWidth = detailWidth / 2f; var factor = detailWidth / terrain.terrainData.size.x; // Calc factor for detail map resolution var targetX = (int)Math.Round((position.x * factor) + halfDetailWidth, 0, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero); var targetZ = (int)Math.Round((position.z * factor) + halfDetailWidth, 0, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero); var halfExtend = (int)Math.Round(halfExtendWorld * factor, 0, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero); var startX = targetX - halfExtend; var startZ = targetZ - halfExtend; var map = GetMapData(terrain, layer); var maxZ = map.GetLength(0); var maxX = map.GetLength(1); for (var z = startZ; z <= targetZ + halfExtend; z++) { for (var x = startX; x <= targetX + halfExtend; x++) { if (z < 0 || x < 0) { continue; } if (z >= maxZ || x >= maxX) { continue; } map[z, x] = 0; } } SetMapData(terrain, map, layer); } private static int[,] GetMapData(Terrain terrain, int layer) { return terrain.terrainData.GetDetailLayer( 0, 0, terrain.terrainData.detailWidth, terrain.terrainData.detailHeight, layer); } private static void SetMapData(Terrain terrain, int[,] mapData, int layer) { terrain.terrainData.SetDetailLayer(0, 0, layer, mapData); }

Otherwise nice day and greetings NoserverStudios
