Terrain Creation and editing at runtime

Hi there,

This has probably been asked so many times before but i cannot find a definite answer.
I want to be able to create terrain at runtime but allow players to be abel to state how bid, resolution etc.

After they have created their terrain I want them to be able to paint it like in unity but at runtime, (Webplayer, exe, macOS.

Upto now i have everything else set up, saving scene, sending to server, downloading from server, loading, placing, editing object and properties, lighting etc. This is the last part of my experiment and would like to know if this is possible.

A video from around 3 weeks ago showing what it could do back then. Dropbox - Error - Simplify your life

Thanks

John

This is possible. In fact, we did so (as a test) for Guns of Icarus online.

That said, you still may want to write your own terrain system, eventually, for a variety of performance reasons. That too, is also possible, by creating the meshes by hand.

Either way, this is possible.

Thank you Brian.
