Features
|
|
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Compact voxel storage using 8-bit channels like images
|
|
|
|
|
- Calculates meshes based on grid of voxels. Only visible faces are generated.
|
|
|
|
|
- Vertex-based ambient occlusion (comes for free at the cost of slower mesh generation)
|
|
|
|
|
- Voxels can be of any shape, not just cubes (not fully accessible yet but present in code)

Ideas TODO
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- VoxelMap node for infinite voxel terrain
|
|
|
|
|
- VoxelStreamer node to put on players so terrains know which voxels to load around them
|
|
|
|
|
- Physics!
|
|
|
|
|
- Make voxels editable
|
|
|
|
|
- Support internal threading
|
|
|
|
|
- Support saving and loading
|
|
|
|
|
- Promote classes to Node and Resource for better editor experience
|
|
|
|
|
- Interface for terrain generation modules (I don't plan to integrate a noise library in this module, unless it's integrated in Godot core)
|
|
|
|
|
- Support structure generation (anything that is bigger than one voxel)
|
|
|
|
|
- Convert any imported meshes to Voxel-compatible meshes (to comply with a few optimizations)
|
|
|
|
|
- Generate Mesh resources from voxels so they can be used in the editor as MeshInstances
|
|
|
|
|
- Import resources from other editors like Magicka-voxel
|
|
|
|
|
- Volumetric grid algorithms: fluids, pathfinding, lighting...
