Undergrowth not rendering

Anonymous — Wed, 04 May 2016 09:56:15 GMT

Hello,
I have a weird problem. For some reason the undergrowth of the terrain is not rendering in-game

I tried playing with the clipping planes of the camera and stuff like that but no result. Since I am using a custom boot script(pretty much the one posted in the documentation) is there something I need to turn on or enable in the renderer?

Hi,

In the Appkit that the template projects are based on, and in the Level Viewport, the undergrowth is powered by a Terrain Decoration system.

Look at the stingray.TerrainDecoration API

and the way it's used in `core/appkit/lua/camera_wrapper.lua`:

You'll have to do something similar to that in your script. Create an observer, update its position each frame (usually to the position of the game camera), then destroy it when you're done with it.
